Jah,
Thanks for your response. I've tried a slew of antidepressants with very little success. Prozac, Zoloft, Effexor, Wellbutrin, Remeron, and now Parnate. One thing I noticed with the Parnate is that I had a dramatic initial response that lasted about a week and a half. I could focus, organize, felt more engaged with people- my doc said it was likely due to Parnate's amphetamine like properties, that, unfortunately wear off quickly. Unfortunately, raising the dose now makes feel extra spacey.
The good news with all of this is that given my initial response to Parnate, I think it is likely that I'll respond favorable to a stimulant if prescribed one.
Good luck with the Lamotrigine-
Mark
