Something interesting about Lamictal that I experience and have heard others mention is that, because it has almost no, or no, side effects, also because we have to gradually build up the dose, the advantages feel subtle. It's kind of like one day you realize that for the past 2 days you haven't been feeling unstable. I remember saying to myself, "Hmm. This stuff really is helping." It doesn't seem to be a "crash-boom!" like some meds.

I definitely hope so! Today is a lot worse, but then again I slept very badly last night. Hopefully in a few days it will start to get better. If the Lamictal does work and the side effects are so minimal, it seems almost too good to be true, I'm kind of wondering what's the catch.
