I'm so sorry for asking so many questions but I just have so many unanswered at the moment.

I have been put on Lamotrigine and Clozabam. The Clozabam is to get the Lamotrigine in my system quicker but with the both I am so tired and am really sad about almost everything!

Is this normal? Thank you guys and I hope you're all well
 
The two meds together can cause dizziness, drowsiness, and problems concentrating. And Lamictal by itself can sometimes cause depression. Hopefully, the side effects are just temporary until your brain gets used to the meds -- but if the fatigue and sadness don't go away, or get worse, definitely let your doc know.
