>from personal experience I can say that there are no real side effects that will make school difficult. But I may be unique in that.
However Lamictal made my cognition worse- i mean people commented on how dumb I had gotten (forgetting words, losing train of thought etc) although I have read a paper or 2 stating that it is good for cognition.
You said that there were no side effects that will make school difficult and turned around and said that people were commenting on how dumb you became. This is exactly why I tell people that do not absolutely need to be on drugs like this to STAY AWAY from drugs like this. They are potentially damaging in many ways. I know some that have had MS like symptoms on Lamictal, including myself. Not worth it.
