It is so strange that you had anxiety and insomina on luvox but lexapro worked great. I wish a pdoc could explain that...

To answer this, I find that it is very possible that the xanax could have masked any start up anxiety I had from Lexapro. I do take quite a bit of xaxax (4mgs..) So yes, that is definitely a possibility.> Lamictal? What is that for? May I ask you diagnosis? Thank you
Lamictal is an anti-convulsant/ mood stablizer. It is used in to treat those with epilepsy or bipolar disorder.
My diagnosis' are as follows:
Bulimia Nervosa (in remission)
Bipolar II
Panic Disorder
OCD.Hope this helps, and yes, I too wish pdocs could explain a LOT of things!
