Hi there,
I know there are quite a few of us on Lamictin, and naturally we all respond somewhat differently, but I was just wondering and thought I'dd put the question out there:
I've only just started, and am working my way up on the dose. Been at 25mg for a week and go up to 37.5mg from tonight (Small increments, and I'm aware the dosage is low).
But I'm really battling at work - i feel like a zombie. Busy learning a whole new job, and after 5 minutes of someone talking, I just hear their voices, but don't register a single word.
Naturally, while learning a new job, I now feel overly daunted, as I've only registered a FRACTION of what I've been "taught".
I've had some serious irritability issues - swore at 2 work colleagues after they pushed buttons once too often.
And on Sunday (after a weekend where I really was on the go, I lost it with my boyfriend as I JUST WANTED TO SLEEP!) But I can see that I over-reacted... and I don't like this part of me.
It never feels like there are enough hours in a day, especially with wanting to sleep for 10 hours or so
Arg, I'm frustrated and irritable. At least not depressed
