I hope this next trial on Lamictal will work out for you. After reading your post I did discover something I hadn't thought of. I've also experienced an increase in anxiety and depression later in the evening since I've been on Lamictal. I'm curious to know if this might be dose related or how we take this med. I will ask my Pdoc if he suggests a one time dose or whether it might be better to take in two dosages.
Did the Depakote not work for you? I have been on this med for six months but was experiencing too much hair loss and body tremor. He is slowly decreasing my Depakote while increasing my Lamictal. I am hoping this med will work for me. Often times bipolars need two meds, or even three to control symptoms. My job requires me to be very alert and the sedation of Depakote has proved to be too much for me.
Keep me posted as I am interested in how you are doing.
