In reply to Mental dullness, Lamictal?, posted by gardenergirl on October 30, 2005, at 21:28:20
> Lately I'm feeling a bit mentally dull. It seems like I just don't have as much cognitive energy to go around, and I have to sort of "ration" it. Could this be related to Lamictal? I'm at 100 mg now, and 45 mg Nardil. I don't feel depressed, per se, but I do feel sort of less verbal, both in writing/posting, and talking. Of course, some might find that to be a blessing. ;)

When I hit 150mg I was emotionless and couldn't remeber what I did 5 minutes ago. I wish Lamictal had more staying power at lower doses, but it just doesn't.
