I have been on Tegretol for bipolar, along with Zoloft. I was taken off of my medication. So far, we have not been able to find a successful treatment. I cannot take lithium. I'm either crying or I can leap tall buildings.

My whole life is being swallowed up. I have been working full time for six years and am now a part-time pastor. It is unfortunate you had the dizziness after such good success.

This is extended release Tegretol, and has fewer side effects for many folks, plus once daily dosing.
