papertrees Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 exactly what happened to me. Forgot two days straight and I found myself having racing, suicidal thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit37 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Yikes. I can't even forget for the night, it causes my mind to race. Then again, I take it all in one dose, at bedtime, so that probably doesn't help any. Hope you get back on your feet soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostinthoughtandjaded Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 ewwww, scatty, I did the exact same thing by accident... last night made it day 2 that I forgot... I just took a half dose 5 minutes ago and I can't wait for it to kick in, cause my head feels so gross right now... and my muscles ache... I'm trying to come off prozac at the moment too, which I think is part of the reason I forgot to take my other damn meds.... which only makes me feel grosser... bleechhhhh..... I just want to go home sick but I can't... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alien. Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I forgot to take my lamictal for 2 days and now I'm a mess. Keep swallowing those bitter pills guys! exactly what happened to me. Forgot two days straight and I found myself having racing, suicidal thoughts. Total hypocite, (do as I say, not as I do unless you want to end up like me? A: You don't) but skipping meds is never a good idea. Takes a while for the meds I'm on to "stop working" but it's no good when they do. Feel better soon, scatty.

scatty Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 Thanks guys. I honestly forgot. I feel a little better today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancesintherain Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 yep, add me to the "me too" category. very, very nasty physical symptoms and lots of mental fun too. only good news out of it is that it reminds me that I forgot it. other helpful benefit is that it reminds me that if I forgot lamictal, I also forgot birth control because I take them at the same time....and forgetting that is equally bad. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crtclms Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I wasn't sure if I forgot it two days ago or not, and I was afraid to double up, so I skipped it, and just waited until last night. I have two questions: 1) what were your physical symptoms? and 2) why can't you take it, for instance, the next morning if you forgot it the previous night? I know they say if you forget, take it as soon as you remember, unless you are close to the time for the next dose. Did you also forget at the point when it was safe to take it? I am not trying to be bitchy, I know I sound like that, I mean, is there a reason, so I know what it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
