Very few people end up using the medication they were put on when first diagnosed - usually it is a trial and error process, with many trials and many errors. Maybe Lamictal isn't your thing. Your prescriber needs to know that you think it Lamictal has made things worse, not better, and about the social withdrawal symptoms you are experiencing. If you keep reading the board, you will see how many failed medications people have taken on here.
