Does anyone else experience this? I get tired from taking Lamictal but it also gives me insomnia because it makes my thoughts obsessive/pressured. So I take it in the morning and try to offset the tiredness with caffeine. (Side note, I’m also TERRIBLE at remembering to take medications at night)

Several users reported experiencing tiredness and insomnia while taking Lamictal. One user mentioned feeling tired all the time and having difficulty functioning due to insomnia. Another user shared that they felt tired about a month after each increase in dosage, but it would eventually even out. Some users suggested taking the medication at night or a few hours before bed to help manage the drowsiness. However, experiences vary and it's recommended to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
