i had about 7 fits between 15 and 19. i take lamotrigine and now im clean for almost 6 years. the side effects on the leaflet is just bs - i get abit of acne but thats it. what helped for me is clearing up the bad habits - no wonder why it happened i barely slept, was stressed out by nothing and used intensive escapism i.e. hammering brain with a cocktail of porn, video games, social media, yotube
