"hi everyone...i want to share my experience on this drug. i was diagnosed bipolar 2 in 2015. at first doctors thought it was depression or/and post traumatic syndrome bc i went bankrupt right before i got sick. the doc tried all anti-depressants you can ever imagine in a matter of 3 weeks. it was a true nightmare. then they realized that my bad reactions to antidepressants was the main reason to diagnose me as a bipolar 2. thank god i didn&#039;t have any rash otherwise i don&#039;t know what would have happened. understanding how lamictal works is vital. however each person is different. the metabolism is what you have to keep an eye on. i have a very fast metabolism. that helped me go up in this medication very fast from 25mg up to 200mg."
