I recently saw a professional for the first time and was prescribed 25mg of lamictal. My “manias” are never problematic, i just notice bursts of energy. My lows can get quite low on occasion. 

Has anyone successfully handled their bipolar disorder without medication? I’ve read stories of people having brain fog after talking lamictal and i already deal with that as my baseline. I’m hesitant to face even more of that, so if i can manage my symptoms without it, I’ll definitely try.
