I've been on epilim chrono 500mg since last november for bipolar disorder. My next manic episode is not due till spring 09 and they aren't helping with the low part. They are making me fat, sluggish and thick headed with no libido, and I've had enough of them. I wasn't told about any of those side effects, I found them all on the internet. I have cut down to every other day because I was worried about just stopping dead. The last few days I have been having dizzy spells when I lie down, aches all over and no energy. Does anyone know if this is related to reduicing the dosage, or if there is a better way to stop?
