Anyone here on Lamotrigine

[RC90]

If so do you feel lots of energy after taking it? I could run a marathon haha

I'm on Lamotrigine (75mg x2 a day) and it helps to regulate my mood. But I need to take it on time so that I can maintain my mood, I don't know why if I take it late it disrupts my mood. Yeah I'm climbing trees just because of the energy influx, I cut a few branches today. I'm a beast. I never thought I could climb, just discovered this year that I can climb trees.

I'm on 100mg and the doctor said the ideal will be 200mg in the upcoming month, yikes. I'm gonna be superman hahahaha

I did take it but developed a rash pretty soon after starting it do had to stop it. Would have liked the energy boost to be honest. Nice to see meds having a somewhat positive impact for some peope though.

Regular blood tests should be done, especially at the beginning of therapy.

yeah I actually did tests last week. Makes my head sweat a lot though. It's the only bad side effect I have.

Took it for six months previously. Did not have have any impact on me, nothing good or bad.

I took it years ago. I did get a lot of energy at first then it calmed down. It was very effective for a couple of years then stopped working.

I've been taking it for almost three months now (150mg) but I take it before bed so I haven't noticed much in terms of increased energy. I wonder if taking it in the morning would affect that because I could use the energy boost hahaha

 

[WinterFaust]

Just started on it a few days ago. I tried it in maybe January? But didn't take it long enough for it to even be effective and stopped because I was planning on ctb. I'm still here though so I'm giving it another shot.

I've been on lactimol for almost 2 years. I take 225mg in the morning, and I think it's the only medication I have that works currently. I do have to take it on time or my body and mind feel weird, all zappy. I think my energy has leveled out? Or maybe I am really sluggish if I was without it. I recommend using it

 

[Throwawaysoul]

I've been on it for about six months and haven't noticed anything good or bad. I wouldn't mind some of that increased energy.

I take lamotrigine and it works fine. No side effects and no energy rush either.
