Barb-cat (or anyone!)
I'm on 200mg Lamictal which seemed to be working for about 6 months.
I'm so perplexed about my current situation. I'm feeling depressed again--somewhere between dysthymic and moderately depressed. People are noticing now, asking me "hey--what's wrong?" when I thought I was doing such a good acting job. Low to no appetite, NO motivation, avoiding people, etc. The Lithium was a disaster. I had all of my symptoms, with the addition of bruxism and NO MEMORY!!!
So here I am, wondering if maybe I should jump up on the Lamictal again to see if it will do the trick w/o the weird side-effects. OR...just tough it out until the seasons change. OR...add another mood stabilizer (Depakote, Zyprexa or Trileptal). OR...try to add Wellbutrin and risk a mixed state.
Sorry to ramble. I'm confused and depressed. Take care all,
Katy
