So I'm currently on 150mg of topamax, 150mg of lamictal, and 300mg of trileptal. I have been on it for a while but for the past few weeks I have started to experience very vivid dreams, at first it didn't bother me but now its interrupting my sleep. I'm already suffering from a lack of sleep and that's really not good because it makes me me more prone to hypomania (which has been happening). Anyone had similar experiences on these meds or just me?

Same thing happened to me when the lamictal started kicking in. That was a few weeks ago..and while I do dream more than I used to.. they aren't hyper-real like that were for a bit. I assumed it was the lamictal anyway...

I tend to get vivid dreams anytime I switch meds or change doses. They tend to abate after about a week or so.

Hey thank you so much for the replies, the thing is I've been on lamictal for almost 4 months and on and off for a year so I'm not sure whats going on. I have also been hypomanic and been extremely paranoid for the past few days, I'm actually a bit scared I might be experiencing auditory hallucinations, as a bipolar 2 I'm freaking out abit.
