Ambien had the same effect on me, too. Right now I use temazepam for sleep though I agree with my pdoc that benzos are not ideal for sleep. Still my pdoc recognizes my anxiety level and how intractable my insomnia is-- I have tried every Z drug on the market. You might have success with a trial of Lunesta or Sonata. These worked for me for periods of time before they pooped out. Ambien never did.
I'm curiuos about your med timeline. Did you start the lamictal and Effexor together, or was there a time when you were on lamictal as monotherapy?
