thanks so much for your encouraging words. i've been so nervous about starting on the lamictal...today i took my second dose. yesterday i felt weird after i took my first dose but i'm thinking it was mostly my nervousness...as well as the fact that i had two unrelated minor out-patient procedures yesterday.
when i went up to 300 on wellbutrin i got real forgetful and confused--not a good thing for a college professor...my students began to laugh at me and i had to laugh at myself...what else could i do? when i went back down to 200 i've been mostly okay...though i have my moments when it is hard to remember even where my wallet is. but that could be the ptsd too and my tendency towards dissociation.
how long have you been on lamictal? did you experience any of the rash? my hope is that the lamictal will kick in before the fall semester starts in a bit over 8 weeks.
thanks again for your response...and i did find those other posts too.
