Bipolar Disorde
"I am diagnosed bipolar II. I&#039;ve been taking this for 3 years now. I increased the dosage up to 400mg at one point and became very dizzy and nauseated. Although, for the majority of the time, I took 150mg twice a day, but now the effectiveness is wearing down.  I give this medicine a 7 because it definitely helped stabilize my moods and I became less irritable.  I&#039;m discontinuing my use this week to try lithium.  I hear great things about lithium and am tired of the inconsistency I&#039;ve been getting with lamotrigine as of late. (Also, the possibility of developing Steven Johnson&#039;s syndrome is totally not worth it and long-term use of lamotrigine doesn&#039;t make you immune to it of course!)"
