Ughhh again, this is so hard! I don't like destroying my life with mania but the lows are sooo low my body doesnt want to get it together today.

Help!
I'm sorry you're suffering right now. When I was on Lamictal, I had those headaches for about a week or two, then they went away. They would come back with each dose increase, but again, they went away fairly quickly.

good luck
