Hey.. so my doctor just put me on this a couple days ago. I’m not really sure what to think of it. It’s supposed to help me with my moods, but is primarily given for seizures (which i don’t have).
So far i’ve been very jittery and shaky on it. My anxiety is so high that i feel like i’m constantly having a panic attack ( how my heart feels).
I’m on a small dose to start.. 25mg.
Just curious if any of you have had any experience with this drug.. and what it’s done for you.. bad or good.

the only drug i’ve been on is the pill that anesthizes you to focus if you have ADHD or ADD.
Nope, never taken it.
I’m on lamotrigine for bipolar and I’ve never experienced anything out of the ordinary. I can’t recall my dosage off the top of my head, but I’ve been taking it for over a year. I think the side effects will quell eventually, just make sure you don’t develop any rashes, they can be fatal. Are you on anything else as well? Two drugs may not be compatible and that could be what is causing this effect.
