Okay, your docs probably know a lot more than I do. My general impression of Lamictal, however, is that it is considered most effective to prevent depression in bipolar patients, and that other mood stabilizers are better for predominantly manic patients.

My personal experience with Lamictal have been positive so far. I have huge insomnia problems that are in remission, possibly due to the drug.
