Yeah, I was on Lamictal for a while...it really seemed to help. I have stopped taking it for cost reasons since I got out of the hospital.

Several people at my NAMI groups rave about it, though. This one fellow said that this was the first holiday he wasn't hiding from everyone else, credits it all to Lamictal. he's been taking meds for bipolar for 40 years, said it was the only one that ever really did him any good.

You have to ramp up on it slowly, though.Some people are allergic to it. I didn't have any trouble, though. Your pdoc will hook you up.

Good luck with it, hope it works wonders!
