JonW-
Thank you for your insight. I will take a look at the links you provided. It's a great start. (Better to have some research done and understand all this stuff myself before I follow up with the doctor in next few days.)SRI's have always worked well for me so I will speak with the doc re the Lamictal.Next question. It was strange doing all this reading and seeing myself emerge off the page-especially since so much of who I see myself as as a person is part of the creativity in the highs and the insight in the lows. I am scared of losing that part of myself on a stabilizer. Should I expect that?
PS
Re the question about Propulsid-its a very safe drug if taken properly. Unfortunately, I have tried everything else on the market and nothing else works for me. I have managed to get special approval from the pharm co.and have an amazing doc and we monitor constantly. New drugs evolve daily so I am hopeful that one of these days I will find a replacement before I have to stop taking it.
