I take both Adderall and Lamictal. I take 300mg of Lamictal and a total of 60mg of Adderall. I haven't had any issues like that with either of them. Adderall will make you antsy if you're taking too large of a dose and haven't gotten used to it yet. Whenever I up my dose, I get like that for a day or so.

Generally, if I'm having sensitivity issues (which is sometimes a problem for me randomly and always has been), I use a doctor prescribed Lidocaine gel. That works really well. Sometimes I just try my best to ignore it, which works 50/50.

I would very seriously consider talking to your doctor though. Being swollen doesn't sound like a normal reaction to those meds and I've known a lot of people on both. There may be an allergic reaction to the Lamictal, which can happen. less

At least you can look at it in a positive light! It could be worse..."anal seepage".

Brain drugs are really strange, in that doctors aren't exactly sure what they do, but they work...ish.

I hope things settle down for you. If not, at least you know how to take care of the issue!

Also, I'd love to have that last sentence on a t-shirt. less

So yes, I used to be around here a lot and kinda dropped off the face of the earth. My personal life had gotten insane and I need to tend to that.

Because of all that, I decided that I was going to head to the psychiatrist so I could treat my depression, unstable moods, and horrible ADHD. I was put on Adderall and Lamictal (a mood-stabilizer). I had been on both for about a month before at the same dose and it worked really well for me. This time I had to gradually increase my dosage of Lamictal by doubling every two weeks.

I was on 50mg (which is half of where they wanted me to end up) up until I increased again a couple days ago. On the 50 I started noticing that I'd seem to get physically turned on for no reason. I do work in an adult store, but I'm so desensitized to the things here that I don't even notice them anymore, so it wasn't like I was thinking about anything that would have led to that.

Now that I upped my dose again it has become insane. I'll be sitting there in the middle of some mundane task or going about my daily business and it starts again and continues for hours. I mean, it feels like I'm all hot and bothered like I'd be during foreplay, not just having sexual thoughts. It's all tingly, warm, sensitive, and swollen down there. It gets incredibly frustrating when I have to sit there for hours at work with this going on and I have to rush home and take care of it. In fact, last night I had to have five orgasms before it went away. And speaking of that, everything is incredibly more sensitive, so my orgasms don't take much at all, and they've actually gotten longer and more intense. You think that would be fun, but it's not when you're only masturbating to get that stupid feeling to go away.

It's gotten to the point where it's incredibly distracting and irritating. It makes me incredibly antsy and on edge. I don't want to stop the medication because this is the only issue I'm having with it, but this whole crazy vagina issue is nuts.

I was thinking of grabbing a desensitizing agent like some Anal Ease or some male prolonging stuff to see if that helps. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've got a couple bottles sitting here. The Anal Ease is a huge bottle that I wouldn't want to carry around and has Lidocaine at 5%, the delay sprays have Benzocaine at 7.5% and Lidocaine at 9.6%. I just don't want anything that's lubey.

Or has anyone dealt with this before? less
