Between Lamotrigine and Sertraline, I feel somewhat better. But do the cravings and night sweats ever stop !?


I went from 140lbs to 160lbs just since the beginning summer. I'm constantly craving sweets and eating for dopamine and boredom or something. Even though I'm also on Ritalin. Or maybe it's 'happy' weight since my depression isn't quite as bad and I probably wasn't eating enough prior.


I wake up in a puddle of sweat nearly every morning. Some nights are better than others. Fans help but then I'll wake up all dry and stuffed up. It's also to the point I've had to get silk pillowcases and use medicaided wash/moisturizer my face at least 3-4 times a day.

Any personal experience or advice to make it more bearable? When do you personally find that the cons outweigh the pros of a medication?
