lamictal and anxiety

Posted by ShayCollins on March 8, 2008, at 21:23:53

Hey,
I just started Lamictal and although I am only on 10mg, I have been feeling very anxious and stimulated in the past few days. Has anyone had a similar experience and if so does this side-effect go away with time?
Thanks

I had the same experience. I actually got a little hypomanic on it. After 3 days I quit.

About the hypomaniac comment, i have to agree and sometimes i do feel hypomaniac but i never have without the help of psychostimulants so i dont reallyu view it as a bad thing.
