Lamictal at 12.5mg isn't likely to be causing problems, and it certainly isn't likely to be providing any noticeable benefit. And you're on the lowest dose of EMSAM.
My advice? Titrate up, and see how it goes. I imagine your doctor has offered a titration schedule for both drugs? It's worth getting up to a therapeutic dose, to see if it will work. Wouldn't it be a shame to miss out on the benefit, because of discomfort during the adjustment phase? In my experience, ALL drugs have had varying amounts of discomfort during the adjustment phase -- and some of those drugs have worked find for me.
Good luck.
