Lamictal can cause some cognitive issues, which can be pretty frustrating. It's unfortunate that a lot of meds have side effects.
Anyway, if you are on your computer a lot, another option is using desktop widgets. Microsoft used to have desktop gadgets but they removed support for them, but you can still get them back using third-party programs. Here's one guide.
I used to use Konfabulator back in the day. What I liked about it was I could see what I needed to do by just glancing at the screen and I could prioritise items.
Another option is Outlook On The Desktop. It puts the Outlook calendar directly onto your desktop.
Mind you, these are all third-party programs so always use with caution, and have a good antivirus.
