I am new to this site because I feel my problem has worsened enough where I think I might need help. I have been on Lamictal 100mg twice daily for three years. Like 6 months ago I started to get suicidal thoughts on a daily basis (5-20 times every day). After work I get home and reflect on the day and I get this urge to commit suicide. I am beginning to worry as I am starting to get visions and feel that I am desensitizing (if that is a word) myself to the fact of suicide. I have not had these thoughts before and was thinking that it was a sub-conscious factor, but I started looking at forums and came across some people with similar stories.
My neurologist basically freaked me out about dilantin saying the side effects outweigh the benefit, so I took lamictal thinking it was my best option. I don't know what to do, I don't have many (two in my life) siezures, but they were categorized as tonic-clonic. I am really scared, anyone have resources that might help???
