Anyone have memory loss on Lamictal?
Post Body

I've been taking it for a couple years now. Also started having some pretty bad memory loss issues around the time I started it. I only recently found out that it's a potential side effect of the drug.

Around that time I also overdosed on klonopin, which wrecked me for a while, regarding my memory. Could this possibly still be from that?

I can't seem to learn anything anymore and am just missing years of information. All of my college schooling is pretty much gone (only went for like, two years) and I can't remember a lot of important events from the past few years. I've forgotten all about books I've read and can re-watch movies I know I've seen like I've never seen them before. I have a hard time with conversation and I frequently forget food I'm cooking or leave burners and water on.

You get the idea.

But it's getting in the way of a lot of things I'm trying to do lately. And it doesn't seem normal at all.

I'm also supposed to be getting screened for a potential brain tumor soon. So if I have one, that might also be a problem. -_-

Does anyone else have any issues like this?
