I'm also on lamictal. Alcohol makes the meds not work properly..it also is a depressant so that also makes it a bad idea to drink. I quit drinking 3 years ago and it's taken me that long to get fully stabilized. I knew I had a problem because I continued to drink daily on all my meds. I'm not at all saying you have a problem with it...I'm just speaking for myself. It not only gave me bad hang overs but it made my symptoms from bp2 and depression and anxiety really bad. I just couldn't stop. It was hard to stop but once I did I found relief. Relief from the obsession to always want to have alcohol. It's been a hard three years but I'm glad I'm finally stable. It's taken that long for my brain chemistry to straighten out. It's common for people with mental illness to self medicate which is what I was doing.
