H started Lamictal on 3/1. Here it is, only 3/9, and seeing some beautiful changes!!! H does not believe the meds are working yet, but, I KNOW THEY ARE !! His anxieties are calming very nicely. He is able to deal with life so much better.

Wed is my NAMI F2F class night. Normally when I come home H is hiding, on edge and last Wed he even said he 'I think I hate' our dd. Last night I came home to a happy H. DD was in bed (he normally will not even attempt to put the kids down) and he told me all the things he did with our ds in the night. His belief the kids were better behaved. Oh well, why argue?

When he took Lamictal in 2002 I don't remember seeing any changes in him at all. So I was not very hopeful and I most certainly did not expect to see changes in less than 2-3w. But here we are, talking, laughing, smiling and spending time together. I'm even seeing changes in my ds. His face is glowing. His smiles more beautiful. I believe he can feel the tension is being released.

THANK YOU ALL FOR THIS BOARD & MOST OF ALL THANK YOU FOR RECOMMENDING NAMI !!! (I believe it was Lori who recommended them.) I do not know if I would have made it this far without NAMI. Now I get to give them some of my gratitude back by redoing the website for our local chapter.
