I know...but I can only even take 50 of Lamictal....that's enough. I may have damaged my system with anorexia for a long time. I'm still struggling with it for many reasons, but modeling was a lifeline for me after my divorce - the alimony didn't even begin to cover the debts we had amassed. They said that I may be processing the med as an adolescent (I'll be 26 soon).

I find it unbelievable, too. I questioned both primary and psych. about it. Any higher made me just....irritated and so sleepy I couldn't function. I also have to only take .25 of Klonopin for it to work. I took 1 mg. last night to REALLY knock me out.

I went through rehab in Jan. for painkillers. Of course, Rxed. I abused them because I was miserable and didn't care. But with that even, 8 painkillers a day was the most out of control I got. Meds just really affect me.
