I had some problems with lamictal giving me too much energy, racing thoughts, sort of hypomanic and found myself crashing after a few hours. MY Dr. suggested Xanax XR as alternative to lamictal for anxiety and depression since the lamictal was causing these other symptoms. The X XR works ok but I start crashing at night after the xanax is wearing off. I'm thinking of a very small dose of lamicital of few times a day (12.5mg) 2x a day and taking the xanax xr 2x a day to ward off the crash. Just would like opinions. I need to address the anxiety and depression and I love the boost lamictal gives me but hate the inevitable crash. Anyone else tried this combo?
