I honestly don't think that's a good idea at all actually.

Like Christina said, you need a boatload of coping skills, and even then its not easy, trust me.

From what I've read you're not too keen on using dbt skills and you like to down the booze quite often. So I don't think quitting meds is the answer for you when you're drinking on top of a bp and bpd combo.

It can lead to bigger badder chaos among your friends, as well as using booze to self medicate.

I think you should rather speak to your pdoc about adjusting your meds, maybe lamictal isn't the one for you.
