I'm on Lamictal 300 mg, and it seems like my brain is not functioning very well. My memory is horrid, and I get confused and can't figure out simple things. I guy asked me simple directions last week and it took me a minute to figure it out. I had taken the same route for the entire week before that. This is something that I would normally have blurted out in a second.
I was put on Lamictal because I was hypomanic even though Lamictal doesn't have very good antimanic properties.
I've been put on Adderall XR and I'm at 10 mg right now and I'm going to have to go up because this dosage isn't doing the trick. Even before the Lamictal I had attention problems though, so it's not that I'm taking the Adderall just because of this Lamictal side effect. The Lamictal has just made the situation worse.
