Hey all,
I'm BPII with mixed-states/dysphoria/anxiety predominant, periodic depression, and possible ultra-rapid cycling.
I had a Lamictal trial about a year ago. There were some other side effect issues, but the main problem was increased anxiety/agitation, despite a relatively slow titration. This was during a very stressful period of my life, though.
I'm wondering if anyone had had this sort of experience with Lamictal, but ridden it out. Does it settle into something more stable?
Alternatively, has anyone had this kind of a reaction to Lamictal, discontinued and retrialed? If so, was it basically the same experience, or was it a little smoother?
Thanks for sharing,
