dancesintherain Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I missed my medication this morning initially (I was feeling awful enough that I came back home to take it and then went back to work). I'm curious whether withdrawal symptoms can kick in really quickly or if it's just a coincidence. I feel better now that I've taken them. But they were delayed by about 5 hours and that was after taking night-time medication early last night. In the morning, I take 250 mg lamictal, 150 mg lithium, and 100 mcg synthroid. The symptoms were feeling like my thoughts were really hazy, slight depersonalization, and a pretty nasty headache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancesintherain Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 so strangely all the symptoms went away after I took the medication that I should have taken. Not that it's completely surprising, but I don't feel like I take that much in the morning such that it should have that sort of impact.

Raspberry Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I missed my Lamictal last night. I couldn't remember if I had taken it or not so I didn't take another dose. 3 hours later I felt sick and dizzy, like I was swaying and had a seizure. Oh and weirdly my fingers started aching really badly. Even though I've taken my morning dose I still feel a little headachy. I guess any sudden drop in medication levels is going to have a negative effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancesintherain Posted October 3, 2018 Author Share Posted October 3, 2018 Thank you both. I thought I was just making it up because it seemed so quick. The strange feeling is a good way of describing it. I’m fortunate that I was able to get back home to take it. Maybe I should carry a dose of everything with me to be safe.
