drinking on lamictal
I started lamictal back in January in the beginning of my marathon training cycle so I wasn’t drinking. It’s now post marathon and I drank a beer and split a mixed drink with my friend last night. And oh my goodness. I’m not doing well. I already had no tolerance and struggled the day after, but I barely had anything to drink and I’m struggling with hangxiety and depression.
Summer is coming up and I have some vacations planned and there will be drinking. I don’t drink often and maybe drink 1-2 times a month and only ever 1-3 drinks per time. My psych said a drink at a party is fine, but I’m curious about other people’s experiences. I’m also only on 50 mg and it’s working well, but am thinking of asking my psych if we can increase to 75 at my next visit.
