I take it a night and within a couple of hours, I can't keep my eyes open and even though I'm sleeping about 7 hours a night, I'm still very tired during the day. Did anyone else experience tiredness as a side effect of Lamictal? Did it go away with time?

Lamictal was too activating for me. I ended up getting dysphoria from it. My risperdal makes me tired if I haven't taken it in awhile. And everytime we up my trileptal that makes me very tired. You should get used to it after a couple days though. Good luck!
