My personal bias would be towards continuing with the Lamictal as I am bipolar II and it has helped so much in ridding me of tumultuous mood states that included free-floating anger. As for antidepressants, going on them and off them had a strong tendency for provoking those sort of symptoms.

> fuchsiaHi. Thanks alot for the responses everyone. Yes the rage seems to be attributed to the AD withdrawal..I am thinking.. How messed up is that? Anyhow did anyone find Lamictal to keep them awake at night? I have only slept about 4hours the past 4 nights. Maybe it is too stimulating for me. I don't have a racing mind or over activity at night I just lay in bed. Do get abit anxious but I worry alot too. I need sleep so bad right now. Could this be a sign that I am headed into a state of mania or possibly psychosis? Especially since I just expereinced a period of rage which but we are all thinking was a result of AD withdrawal. I don't know what to think about the Lamictal. Send some input. Need sleep so bad.
