I really want to stop this med I am a 20 year old male I have been on it for about 8 months but my side effects are pretty bad it makes me not hungry at all and makes me pretty emotional blunted. I have had pretty severe weight loss it’s embarrassing. I was taking 100mg now I’m taking 200 but it got 5x worse once I increased the medication. I want to stop it completely is there another mood stabilizer anyone has tolerated any better ? With side effects like weight gain. Or should I just not take any meds? Thank you so much for reading this delusional rant. Any comments would be deeply appreciated!
