"Hello everyone,
I am taking Lamictal 200mg daily now for Bi-polar II, have been on that since November, I really do not think it is working!! I am still having my "evil spells", I feel like I could bite the head off of a snake one minute and the next I am crying my eyes out or completely manic. Is it just me??"
