Have a doctor's (GP) appointment today to see if there's a physical reason for my extreme lethargy and lack of motivation. I don't think there is but this lack of strength to do anything is beginning to trouble me - I have to concentrate really hard on the simplest of tasks including showering or boiling potatoes! I also have an appt on Monday with my shrink to see how the Lamictal is working out and talk about my apathy with him too. I just wish all the bruises on my legs would go away! I'm getting a bit fed up of wearing long clothes in this heat.

I had bruises all over my legs too but it's too hot not to wear shorts, don't worry about the other people! They went away when I got off the lamictal though. What dosage are you on? I hope it starts working for you soon.

Hey I had another post started but just read this one. I started taking Lamictal today. What's this about bruises on your legs? I already have bruises on my legs - just because I don't get enough vitamins I think, I've been anemic. Is that something to be more concerned about now? Just wondering.

I don't know if the bruises are connected to Lamictal or not. The doctor didn't say anything about them, but I will check with my shrink next week.
