> I'm not giving up but my doc said once you get to a point, and start to feel slowed, thats when you probably need to back down. She said once you get past 150mg, you start to get more of a stabilzing effect which I don't need, just the antidepressant effect. So I'm backing down to 100mg for a few weeks versus increasing the dose.

In your opinion, does lamictal have stabilizing effects at lower doses? I'm feeling pretty flat at 50 mgs...of course I'm also on 40 mgs of Celexa.cheers
