Hi everybody. I just started Lamotrogine for bipolar treatment. About 2 days after I started at the lowest dosage, I began to experience extremely disruptive nightmares 9/10 times I fell asleep. This includes naps and also meant I’d wake up about 4 times a night. Luckily, I’m in the middle of a manic episode so I don’t mind the lack of sleep but it is very annoying as I don’t get a whole lot of nightmares. I can deal with vivid dreams but waking up terrified isn’t fun. I stopped taking it without consulting my doctor and the nightmares immediately went away that night. Has anybody else experienced this? I googled it and I could only find a single medical journal that described this happening so quickly and on such a low dosage.
