Hi Sheila.
It is VERY common for someone who is just starting Lamictal to feel good for a few days at 50 mg/day and perhaps upon an increase to 100 mg/day. If you should lose the antidepressant effect, you cannot abandon the drug so fast. It is likely that you will "recapture" the antidepressant response at the full therapeutic dosages. 200 mg/day is the minimum I need to feel better. If I go higher, I experience problems with memory and cognition. This doesn't happen to everyone, though.
