Personality Changes on Mood Stabilizers and ADHD Meds

Has anyone ever noticed that their personality feels pretty different when on mood stabilizers - (lamotrigine for bipolar 1/2) and/or ADHD meds (Concerta)? I have felt like a completely different person now that i’m 1.5 months into meds. idk if it’s a good thing. or a bad thing. no clue. Also has anyone felt that they feel like depressive lows last longer when on Lamotrigine?

I’ve been on Concerta for a few weeks, and I realized I’m having more trouble regulating my emotions more. Like, I’m crying almost every day which isn’t like me.

Im on Wellbutrin, Concerta, and Cymbalta. I definitely feel like my personality is different. I am much more bubbly and silly now. I was very serious before.
