   ADD drugs and Anticonvulsants (ADD - Attention Deficit Disorder board)

13th August 2006
I have been mis-diagnosed for the past 13 years with bipolar/severe depression/severe anxiety blah blah. I am 28 and currently on Concerta, Trileptal (it's similar to Tegretol), and Klonopin. I am concerned about the effects of taking a stimulant during the day and a strong dose of anticonvulsants at night. I have only been on the Concerta for a few days and I feel like I'm on speed. Is this normal? Has anybody else taken this strange combination of pharmaceuticals?

I have been on ADD meds for 8 years and since I am also diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder as well as ADD...I have taken depakote, lamictal, tegretol and now trileptal (all anticonvulsant/mood stabilizers). As well as about every antipsychotic on the market. I also have been taking klonopin predominately for 6 yrs till recently...I am now taking ativan. I have been on all kinda med cocktails with out any problems due to mixing meds. You will be just fine. Just my 0.02 cents :angel:
