It used to be activating when I was on it years ago but this time around it’s mellowing me out.
Keeping me sedated but not fatigued so much.
I thought that this stuff would act more like a stimulant more or less.
I think that it’s starting to help with depression a bit.
I’m no longer spiraling downward into deep lows.
How does Lamictal make you feel?

Yeah I take it with Depakote so I have to start off on a lower dose.
I’m glad it’s helping with your anxiety @Karma
It used to make me very anxious but now I think it’s helping with my anxiety also.

Yup. Helps keep me from my massive depressive swings. Works well for me. No noteworthy side effects.

Good to know it’s working well for you @Ooorgle
I’m glad so far I’m not experiencing deep spiraling lows but I don’t like that it’s making me emotionally flat.
Maybe I have to get used to it?

It may level out as your body becomes more used to it.
I personally blame the illness and breaks I’ve had for the emotional blunting, the anhidonia.
I hope it works for you.
