Hi fb...
The only thing I can share with you regarding LAmictal was it caused me alot of memory loss and also caused me to have balence issues. I took 2 or 3 tumbles (broken nose and 2 root canals) and was so worried that I made an appt with a neurologist thinking i might have MS. He immediately told me to stop the Lamictal and that was the end of that.
All of the anticonvulsants can affect brain processing as that is why they work for seizures, but they can have those side effects that affect thought processing.
But I suppose for someone with mania it can be effective in slowing the racing thoughts, but not fo rsomeone with depressed or slowed thinking...
