Hi confused, welcome to Babble!
I take Lamictal to augment the MAOI I take for atypical depression. My pdoc had me start low and go slow as well. This is the best way to avoid potentially dangerous side effects such as the rash that can be associated with Lamictal.
I know it's hard to wait for a drug to take effect, but try to be patient. It's been helping me so far, and from what I understand, it's very good for treating the lows of bipolar.
Hang in there and keep posting if it helps!
