Glad you're feeling better!

When I was on Lamictal I found I was getting tired and dizzy too so my pdoc suggested I try taking it at night instead of the morning. That made a huge difference for me since I slept through the side effects and felt fine by the morning.

You might want to talk with your pdoc about your lithium level and Lamictal dose and make sure they're both in the theraputic range. I know you titrate up on Lamictal so maybe you're still on the way to increasing your dose.

I felt great once I reached my target dose of Lamictal.

Thanks for this!
