Thanks for the input. I'm glad you're doing well on Lamictal, and you're right about varying results .
It really does seem like a major coincidence if it's not related to the increase in my dose.
I didn't take the extra pill on Sunday, though I did today. I feel better, but given Lamictal's half-life, I doubt that it would be because of taking only 100 mg Sunday. As long as I'm not continuing to act like a raging harpy, I'll stick with the 125 to see if it helps and if the irritability goes away.
I did have a moment when I wondered if it was the beginning of a manic or hypomanic reaction, but in looking at the criteria, irritability is pretty much the only one that I would meet, so I'm going to let that worry go for now.
Thanks again.
