can I ask why you tried Lexapro if you had good results with Lamictal? I've been considering Lamictal myself. Was the Lexapro an addition to Lamactil you're currently taking or was that a diferent instance of depression? thanks for your input.
> I've gone up to 20 mg of Lexapro for months and it did absolutely nothing for my depression. Maybe I needed to on a higher dose. It's the only SSRI that doesn't give me sexual side effects so that fact makes me suspicious that it doesn't work for me at all. Anyways I'm weaning off of it now and my PDOC is raising my dosage of Lamictal as I had good response with that before for depression and it increased my creativity.
