My lamictal rx starts me at 25 mg. too. I haven't started the bottle yet. Last time I took it was 2-3 yrs ago for about 5 months. I went off because it made me too sleepy.

But also last time when I started at the 25mg dose I was like you Nessa all over the place for several days. Crying spell at a work event, couldn't stop for at least 4 hours. Then next day I'm in bed with a client , feeling like im on top of the world. It all had to be just getting used to the med for my body.

A phone call with the question to the doctor couldn't hurt. They have time for a phone call.
