Bipolar Disorde
"I&#039;ve been on Lamictal for three years for Bipolar disorder and Epilepsy, at first as a mood stabilizer and then as an anticonvulsant/mood stabilizer.  It&#039;s been excellent at treating the bipolar issues, virtually eradicating the mood episodes (with the exception of a couple of days of minor hypomania here and there) and helping a little bit with the coexisting anxiety issues.   However, it hasn&#039;t been any good at controlling my seizures, although it&#039;s made them a lot less severe than they were before I went on higher doses of Lamictal.  I haven&#039;t had any major side effects, or any at all outside of an increased sensitivity to rashes."
