I am pretty new to this, have been on meds just under a month now (prozac and lamictal) and am feeling a lot better but have noticed something...I was in a major depression for a while and didn't have any emotions really. now that I have started the lamictal I feel more emotions...like this morning I seriously almost felt teary because the sunrise was so beautiful. then a song on the radio on my way to work made me feel sad because it reminded me of how much hell I have put my family through in the last year...

has anyone else had this happen? I can't remember if this is what emotions felt like before and I just am not used to it or if this is a side effect of some sort...

the feelings aren't strong enough to interrupt my functioning (trust me I've had those before, ragey or depressed to where I can't work), actually I think I am feeling more positive feelings now. but it's still freaking me out a little...I might be overanalyzing. I just haven't felt much of anything in a long time...I'm having a hard time even trusting my own feelings right now.

I felt nothing while I was on Wellbutrin (450mg for about 8 years) I weaned myself off and now I feel everything. I love it. It was too much at first but now it's ok. I cry at songs..movies..but it's not a sad cry. But in addition to 'feeling' things again I've gained about 40lbs.. that really makes me want to cry lol.
