> Hi Ted,
> I started lamictal with depakote and klonopin in place, so I really didn't experience any increase in panic attacks or anxiety. Are you on a benzo for anxiety? If you start out low and slow- 25mgs for the first week (actually I did 12.5 because of the depakote), you should be able to judge your rx pretty well. At 100mgs, I was absolutely euphoric, gee maybe I should take it again- Judy
>Judy, thanks for your advice. I have on hand tranxene and also xanax when a PA may develope, but lately I have been taking more of the xanax with the Welbutrin, because xanax was offering some additional AD effect, and taking the normal dose of tranxene began to add to the depression. I believe that a trial on lamictal may well be worth it. Because with the exception of 150 to 200mgs a day of Wellbutrin SR, the entire realm of ADs, I have already tried, I have not gotten through the side effects, loss of libido, spaciness etc. thanks again...Ted
