Got down to 75 mg and am having horrible irritability.
It started a couple of days after I lowered the medication. It could be something else, but I'm not sure.
I took 100mgs last night, and was calmer... Not sure if that was it.
does anyone have experience with tapering off Lamictal?

I only got to 50mg and was only on it a short while. Just stopped it. But guessing it's been a while for you? Phillipa

I've had irritability while tapering from most meds. But, irritability is what my meds are treating.
Hang in there. The last med I tapered off of, I was irritable for 3 days after stopping, then finally the irritability stopped.
