It's a weird situation, because if the Lamictal is contributing to this, I am about to increase the dose and it could get worse, but if it is going to help I won't know until I increase it, too. I am afraid this will backfire.


Actually “I” had Lamictal cause me hypomania. I was on it from the end of 2012 to Oct of 2016. I have not had “any” hypomania since I stopped taking it. I never figured it out until I stopped taking it.
