Well the reason I was prescribed lamictal is because my pdoc thinks I may have a mood stability problem and she didn't want to prescribe a TCA cause she thought it could make me manic. This was based on the fact that prozac worked really well the first time and that I was kinda weird during the 2 years after. I don't think I have a mood problem but I will see what this does. Maybe she plans on adding an AD to it later but wants to be sure I won't become manic? idk..
