I take both Lamictal and Seroquel. Somehow they do not magically cancel themselves out when it comes to eating/not eating. Ugh, right?
If I eat before I take Seroquel, then I do not suffer hunger pains and extreme cravings. But sometimes I forget to take it because the Lamictal during the day numbs me from any hunger at all.
While manic, despite taking two mood stabilizers, I feel absolutely no hunger at all for a couple of days or more. Which is not safe as I have hypoglycemia thanks to a chronic digestive condition. Oh, and Lamictal usually makes me really thirsty.
