Hi, @petangelkat1 - You mentioned after starting on the lamotrigine for the mood swings that you for the first time were able to take things out of your shopping cart and return them to the shelf. Will you share more about this? Was a certain mood swing affecting your shopping?

I'd like to request that @pjss48 @healthytoday return and offer their input on whether they also have ADD, if they have mind racing and focusing challenges, as well as what meds and practices help to control the illness. Hoping that @amberpep @mamacita @oprah @catcatanzaro60 @mizmaui444 @cathy615 @windwalker might also join this conversation and offer any input they may have on the same.

@9119, do you also have a diagnosis of bipolar disorder?

Yes, I am bipolar and have tried lamotrigine. It had no effect on me whatsoever. I have never experienced symptoms such as you describe, however. Good luck.
