I've been exhausted physically and mentally, lately. That's why I haven't been on the last few days. I"m beginning to wonder if Lamictal doesn't make me depressed. I started feeling worse and worse, after I started taking it the way I was supposed to. I know before he put me on Effexor, he thought Lamictal might work by itself, cuz it does seem

Yay for Leah coming to visit. Might be just what you need right now. Last night I dreamed I was locked up in a hospital having small heart attacks and Jesse's mom was taking care of me. They wouldn't give me any of my medications until my psychiatrist sat down with the doctor and wrote new medication orders. I kept telling them I had to have them but they wouldn't listen, so Jesse's mom was sneaking them in. Not a PTSD dream, but very weird. I kept waking up and going right back into the same dream.

What an awful dream. I hate it when the dream continues on when you fall back to sleep. Sometimes I've made myself wake up, just to get away from it. Strangest dream I ever had was when this giant sahuaro cactus was chasing me down a dirt road in the desert. The girls still pick on me about that one, lol.

The cactus chasing you down a dirt road in the desert is kind of funny now but it does make a strong visual affect. First one I ever heard of like that....lol. I had some weird ones again last night.

Boy, what's with the dreams lately? I had a repetetive one last night. I kept waking up in a panic, and going back to it, again. Hope yours wasn't bad, just weird.

I always get incredibly tired, sleepy with med changes. I too also have weird reactions to meds. I have become MORE depressed when starting an anti-depressant before. I guess, that can happen with some of them for some people and not just children. Hope you feel better soon!

Sushi... yum! I'm in such a snack mood right now.

Thank you. I honestly do think it has something to do with the lamictal. It was the same thing when I was on Abilify.It seems to make other people anxious and agitated. It put me to sleep, and turned me into a nonfuntioning zombie, completely devoid of emotions.

California rolls...they're the best. =)

Probably the med. I'm like you, mainly just the meds put me to sleep, and take away my emotions. :P

I'll second on the California rolls!! My son and I love those. Hey, CUTE (i'm assuming) family picture!

Thank you, yes, =). My middle daughter, Naomi, is on the left, my oldest, Chelsea, on the right, and Leah, the youngest, in the middle. They're 35, 34, and 26.
