I built up to 150mg and was on it for 6 months. I couldn't feel a difference on the medication, but did experience the side effects mentioned above -- blurred vision (had lasik treatment and had to have one eye enhanced as my vision changed so much), dizziness, trouble falling and staying asleep (need to take a pill) and trouble formulating my words. I thought at 39 I was going through menopause. I took myself off of the Lamictal and Abilify last Monday - one week ago, and would really like to know how long these drugs stay in your system. Most recently, my teeth have started to hurt and I feel very shaky.
