"prior to taking lamictal i was constantly battling bouts of extreme depression and insane manic episodes. i thought i would never have any hope of leading a productive successful life. i have been taking it for 8 months now and it gave me life. amazing. i highly recommend this medicine to anyone struggling with bipolar disorder. i&#039;ve experienced no side effects. you must be patient through it&#039;s inductive stage so stick with it for at least a month."
