Hey Ron,

As a quick point of interest,after a week at 300mg of Lamictal, the AD effect has returned strongly, and the mood curves are much less 'jagged'(if there were such a thing as a jagged curve).
That said, this has corresponded to a few days of blue skies.I'm positive that if I lived somewhere with a more temperate climate,I'd do just fine on Lamictal by itself.
I don't think I've come across anyone else who is literally transformed from normal to a half-crazed,deeply depressed hypomanic state when exposed to two or three days of foul, low rolling grey cloud and rain.Imagine what I go through when it lasts for months on end!It's crippling.
I'm at a complete loss as to how to tackle this(can't see lithium helping, as the mania is always dysphoric.)
Seeing my YDNP tomorrow, so I'll see what 'bright' ideas he comes up with.


Col.
