Bipolar Disorde
"Male, 41 and have been using this medication for 15 years. Back then doctors were very reluctant to prescribe it. I was on a dose of only 50mg a day and had fair improvement. 50 mg a day, however I slipped through the cracks. I got a general practioner to fill my prescriptions. 50 mg, 10 years without regulation and as those diagnosed with Bi-Polar II disorder know, the depression slowly crept up unnoticed by me. It was not until traumatized, I knew to seek help. Back on Lamictal for the second time, but this time at a 175 mg dose, without antidepressants or ADD medications. I forgot what it felt like to enjoy life again. To smell, to crave, a libido, self confidence, self esteem, and rational judgement. Life is again a wonderful experience!"
