My doc has suggested that lamictal may help me. However, I find myself in quite a quandry over it. I'm not sure if I need a mood stabilizer.
Yes, I have times when the bottom just falls out and I get "psychotic", but I can function, so far it hasn't landed me in the hospital. I think I am just more frightened by these episodes than anything else.
I've been on Prozac for 8 years, and he wants to taper me off that and switch to lamictal. I will admit, being off Prozac scares me. I remember how I felt before I started and I NEVER want to go back to that.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this that they would like to share? Has anyone gotten Stevens-Johnsons syndrome? Did you get relief?
I really really just don't know what to tell him I want.
