Thanks Sad Panda. I didn't know about the second trial. I'm going to my doc tomorrow. I was on Tegretol for a while--it was my first antinconvulsant. Worked great for my manias but didn't help my depression. I read that both Lamictal and Lithium have antidepressant properties as opposed to the onther ACs. Lamictal is of course the easier of the two so I thought that would be a good place to start.
I'm open to taking just about anything...I'd rather not gain weight though as that sort of thing adds to my depression. I've already gained enough from other meds over the years.
It's just so much of a rollercoaster.
