Hey Geezer,

> Excuse me for jumping in here. I have been taking Lamictal 150mg. with Depakote 750mg. I can't say the Lamictal has done a d*** thing for me - maybe made me more of a "zombie" (total fatigue and depressed). I think your idea to try it alone or with Lith. would probably be wise. I have received no activating or AD effect from it. I tried adding Prozac (first 20mg/day then tried 10mg./day for depression).....what a disaster....got lots of nausea and dizziness.Have you thought about maybe dropping the dose of depakote to see whether it may be stifling any AD effect that may or may not be being produced by the lamicatal?
Prozac sent me into the stratosphere
with a rocket up my ***...I didn't like that effect-not at all how I'd hoped it would affect me...he said, affectedly....
Aaaargh!! See what insomnia does to a guy...!

Still, it's good to know another member of the exclusive bipolar11 club.
Hope your depression lifts soon though.Cheers,
Col.
