I’m taking 400mg of lamictal(lamotrigine). My dr diagnosed me with More mild case of Bipolar disorder. I need some advice, do my symptoms really demonstrate Bipolar Disorder? 

I will be positive, happy, &amp; affectionate for awhile but then I quickly turn distant &amp; negative. I also have a huge issue with patience. I feel my bad symptoms last longer than my good ones. My husband really struggles with it. I notice it but can’t control it. 

Is lamictal the right medication for me? Is Bipolar disorder really my issue or could it be something else?
