Things were going well, I felt an amplified effect of the Lamictal; way less anxiety, anti-depressant effect was very pleasent, but I could not stay awake. Every day at about 3:00 pm, I would literally have to fight with my eyes to keep them open.
So, I started taking Lamictal at night again recently, only to experience these horribly vivid and sickening nightmares...
Lamictal has helped me so much in terms of my moods, ( I haven't cut myself, purged, or starved myself in 3 weeks!), so I am thinking that the benefits of the drug out weight the negatives..
thank you all who have read this, listened, and responded.
