thanks everyone. so glad for this board. so many smart, well-informed posters.
i have been on lamictal 5 days. i am taking 50 mg. once a day for 2 weeks, then 50 mg. twice a day for 2 weeks, then I see my pdoc.
my question is this: should i split my 50 mg. into two doses of 25 mg. each? (i can cut the tablets). it seems that's how it's most often done, and i have noticed that by late afternoon/evening my moods are way up and down. granted, i am going thru a hard time, but in one hour i go from feeling very positive, hopeful, and grateful to hopeless and crying. these swings continue through the late afternoon, evening, and night. the moods change several times an hour. could just be what i'm going through in my life situation though. any input would be helpful. thank you.
