Hi Jolene--
I definitely had insomnia on Lamictal. Esp. at the higher doses. It's a pretty common side effect. Then again, sleeplessness goes along with mania and depression!
But I found Lamictal to be activating, and at times it made me feel agitated (esp. when I titrated up on the dose). Run it by your doctor next time you see him/her if it is disrupting your sleep too much.
Best of luck with the Lamictal. It's a good drug.
