"this medication saved my life. i&#039;m not diagnosed officially with bipolar ii--i just have a tendency to have pretty bad mood swings. my psychiatrist put me on lamictal a long time ago but for whatever reason i never took it. finally in 2012 i decided to give it a shot and it turned my entire life around. i used to blow up about the most irrational things. my family was afraid to confront me with problems because they knew that i would blow everything out of proportion. since starting on this medication i am so cool, calm, and collected. nothing really rattles me. i am able to see life clearly. i get along with everyone. it&#039;s all thanks to lamictal."
