Bipolar Disorde
"I have taken Lamictal for 12 years. I was taking 150mgs, now 75mg daily. I have not been manic the entire 12 years, and that is what I wanted to prevent. I still feel sad and scared sometimes but not manic. I am an introvert and like to have a lot of alone time to read, work on the computer, etc. so it&#039;s not going to make you an extrovert if you really aren&#039;t one. I  have medical insurance that helps pay for the brand name, since the generic doesn&#039;t work for me. I ended up in the hospital on the generic. I will never stop taking Lamictal, because I don&#039;t ever want to not be in control of myself."
