If you don't like Neurontin, see what your pdoc says about Keppra. It feels a little like Neurontin to me - good at calming, taking the ege off emotions. Not too many side effects, but I had some serious brain fog, which I reduced by lowering the dose.
I felt that both Neurontin and Keppra were good options with Lamictal. I'm curious - are you getting adequate AD effect from Lamictal? At 250 mg, I still need augmentation. That seems to be the norm here. I didn't get additional benefit from going up to 300.
