I have had the mind racing before. Usually when I was taking AD it would go away after awhile. I am hoping the Lamictal will take it away after awhile.

It does seem to have a mild mood-lifting/mellowing effect, so I'm hoping that these results will be more pronounced once I move to 100 mg. Overall, I've found it very benign so far, and have had no problems with interaction with other meds (Klonopin and Adderall).
