"i have had severe bipolar and manic depression for ten years. i was diagnosed at age 14, and have tried countless other medications over the years, none of which helped me in the least. i&#039;ve been on lamotrigine for about 7 months now and i can honestly say this is the first time in ten years where i feel like i am myself again. this medicine has given me my life back. i cannot praise it enough and i strongly suggest anyone with similar conditions try lamotrigine. it has saved my life, quite literally."
