This is what gets me about meds. They can affect some ppl horrifically, then others have no problems.

I've been on Lamictal about 6 months. The only prob I've had is when I up my dosage--I'm not to the full/optimal yet--I always get major dizziness and sometimes vomiting, which goes away after a week or two. Once my doc dials the dosage down a little, it goes away (still working on it, obviously). Otherwise, as Miguelsmom said, I have been very happy with this med as far as keeping my moods level, not as much irritability/hypomania/rage, etc.

I wish you luck with it! I think it's one of the more underrated mood stabilizers.
