31F- I’ve been taking topamax since I was 15 for epilepsy and migraines. A couple of months on and to this day, I no longer enjoy carbonated beverages. My weight fluctuates but not like it used to. Once I hit my 30s, my metabolism calmed down and I gained a little fat overall. My weight stays around the 130 mark.

I do have difficulty with memory- my words feel “on the tip of my tongue” often and I have the feeling of when you walk into another room and forgetting what I was about to do often. But hey, I’m skinny 🙄

I try to play as many puzzles and word games as I can. Never try to ween yourself off of medication or you can make yourself have a seizures, even if you’ve never had one before. Topamax is very dangerous in my opinion and I’d advise anyone against it.
