Hello
I have a question for all of you on lamactil. I am at a crossroad in my dx. I am either Bipolar II or ADHD. I also feel I have severe pms. I have other hormonal problems that resulted in high risk pg's. Anyhow, I feel i am adhd but my therapist says bipolar(rapid cycler). Her reasoning is too high of impulsiveness to be adhd. Anyhow, I may be put on a mood stabilizer. I tried trileptal and topomax in the past and became extremely moody. OMG was I bad. one minute i would be fine. the next min, bawling. the next min, wanting to committ suicide. So I am terrified of mood stabilizers. But if my pdoc goes with what my therapist says, I may be asked to go on lamactil. So, what can i expect? Oh, and would it help with any adhd symptoms?(distracted easilly, no concentration, frustrated easilly because of lack of following what people are saying or trying to teach me. there's more but i'll leave it at that. It has gotten to where if i'm at work i don't think about this mess but at home where i have more time on my hands, i am consumed by it. I get depressed and mad all at the same time. I hate this.
