@peachiee23 and all:

Welcome aboard! Jump in, the water is warm!

Sorry such a sad reason (a bipolar diagnosis) brings you here, but we make the best of it! I agree with @buddha1too, that the Lamictal should be stabilizing you, not causing crying spells. You might want to explore other reasons.

Unfortunately, bipolar is very complex and not yet well-understood by science, so a lot of trial-and-error might be required. Then again, you might be one of the lucky ones who discovers their magic cocktail fairly early. I sincerely hope it's the latter for you!

Anyways, welcome and i hope you enjoy your stay!

Rock on with your bad self,

Jane.
