On some days my daughter is ok but there were times that she has emotional outburst towards us. She does not want to do anything except stay at home in her room.
Please let me know what should I do?

Has anyone experienced brain surges or zap feelings in their brain causing your head to jerk? I am taking 200 mg ER Lamotrigine and am curious if it could be a side effect of the med.

I have been missing doses of my Lamital

I have tried many times to tell him how much this group helps me with my seizures. You don't have to even say anything. Just read what others are going through. I wanted to know if there is a separate group of people that deal with the care of a person who epilepsy. I think he is afraid to write on the one I have because he feels I might see it. I told him you don't have to use your real name or show your picture. He always says no
