I've never felt shakey, but I know it's a mood stabilizer. .. I think it can be used to treat schizophrenia? I'm the opposite if I accidently skip a dose I go a bit crazy, just get bad anxiety and a very short fuse, things that usually wouldn't bother me do.
Best ask for advice from a doctor before cutting back on medications yourself. It's possible what you're feeling is related to the drugs, but you're right sometimes you read about someone elses symptoms and your brain seems to suddenly seems to cause those symptoms to appear.. don't worry you're not alone there. Just be careful with the medications.

Lamictal is a mood stabilizer. It does not treat schizophrenia, it treats bipolar and other disorders with bipolar symptoms.

Your mood should be better on Lamictal, not the other way around. Take your meds according to your doctors order.

Don't bother to read up threads about side effects on this or any other epilepsy forum. Most likely you're just triggering symptoms out of paranoia that you think you might be having, when in fact it's a placebo.
