I have been level for a few days now, and I must say I prefer the numbing depression and chaotic mixed states. Now when something bad happens I fucking hurt, deep soulseering pain. I prefer the numb so what the fuck else is new of depression. I think I will stop the lamictal tomorrow

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.

I don't know how long you've been on Lamictal (sorry, just joined), but did your doctor warn you that it can hurt? The Lamictal, I mean.
Lamictal is a funny drug. Since it is an anticonvulsant, it can sorta 'grab' ahold of your muscles (us seizure-y spazzes tend to face plant when our muscles go limp). When you *don't* have seizures, the drug doesn't know that, and can grab you *anyway*. Usually, this can be fixed simply by your doc adjusting your dose.
Don't give up, there's a solution out there.
