Lamictal is primarily an anti-siezure medication, so you're not likely to have a siezure while taking it. Anti-siezure meds have the effect of limiting your range of emotion, and as they are not addictive like primarily psychiatric meds, are pretty easy to come off of. Lamictal is pretty strong though.

Hopefully you will have a better experience than I did. While I was taking Lamictal my digestive track almost stopped entirely, and trust me, it really hurts when you can't go for 4 days.
