I hear you about the getting old part. I'm sure your hormonal replacement is complicating the whole picture here. I know when I went through IVF last year, I had to take all kinds of steroids, estrogen and progesterone and was according to my then pdoc a "pin ball machine" with my mood episodes. Anyway, agreeing with Scott who agreed with me about the lamictal- ask your pdoc to raise your dose before adding on anything else. Also, unless you are really stable, I think you're asking for trouble with adding an anti-depressant to the picture, like prozac that made you manic- I love that too- except what goes up usually comes down. Take care.
