Lamictal has done wonders for my bipolar type 2. Symptoms have decreased dramatically.

Other than that, it is helpful for me .

lamictal has given me my life back!! I was diagnosed with Bipolar disorder 24 years ago.I have been on every medication there is in that time, nothing worked for very long. I started taking lamictal almost 3 years ago and it has been working wonderfully for me. I have been able to maintain stability and balance for the first time in my life.

I have taken it for 8 years with the exception of when I was pregnant. Other than suppressing my appetite and causing my sodium and blood sugar levels to drop drastically low it has been a miracle. Make sure if you have low blood sugar issues you speak with a nutritionist on the best plan of action to meet your dietary needs.
