Unknown Poster,
Yes, I did experience the extreme tiredness you are referring to. Hang in there until you are at 200mgs before you make up your mind whether to stay on lamictal or not.

> Sorry to but in but I am really struggling with whether or not to stay on the Lamictal. I am only at 75mg right now, about 6 weeks.

> I was just wondering what you experienced prior to reaching the 200mgs. It seems like that is the number where most people experience relief.

> Right now I am experiencing extreme tiredness, and just feel like a space cadet, not happy at all. Prior to this I experienced irritability and anxiety, go figure. Did you experience these symptoms also before you started feeling better?
> I also take Zoloft, Neurontin and Tegretol, which I know affects the lamictal dosage. I may just be on too many meds I don't know. Having trouble typing this even. Any input would be soo appreciated!
