"i was on antidepressants for many years. the other antidepressants made me hyper, anxious and and i had mood swings (sometimes several during a matter of hours). i am finally being treated by a good psych doc and he prescribed this great mood stabilizer for me. now on 75 mgs once daily and i have been taking this for 7 weeks. i did have thinning hair; take multivitamin and vitamin d and notice difference!  i feel better, don&#039;t get angry at work, moods more even and am able to think clearly.  i wake up at night with terrible sweats and don&#039;t know what that is about (will discuss with doc next week).  i walk a lot and exercise is excellent for the body and mind. wish i had this medication 30 years ago."
