In reply to lamictal retardation, posted by sar on December 27, 2001, at 2:35:15
Hi Sar,
I am gaining some weight as well. And I feel cognitively "dull" and kind of flat. I've heard others on this board mentioning the same kind of feeling on Lamictal.Getting up in the morning is like climbing Mt. Everest -- I feel like a huge weight is on me and in my head. Takes a couple cups of coffee and a shower to shake it off.
I am up to 100 mg and am trying to increase up to 150. What dose are you taking?

> sorry to use the word "retardation" rather lightly, but both my boyfriend and i have noticed a marked impairment of my short-term memory and, in certain ways, my cognition. i have also gained weight since beginning lamictal.
