Hmm--why two ADs together? That seems like a bad idea to me. What was the pdoc thinking there?I was not successful with Lamictal-plus-an-AD until I went back on Prozac after a ten year "hiatus". The current combination is as good as I've felt in my whole life. I was on almost every other AD you can name, either alone or in combination with Lamictal.
Unfortunately, the Prozac has destroyed my sleep--I now experience very little REM sleep and nothing deeper than Stage 2--so I have to shop around again. I can barely keep my eyes open on most days--no way to live! Here I thought I had it licked. :-(
