There are different ways to look at this topic. Mine is, just opinion for whatever it is worth, he has gotten more depressed with increasing doses of Lamictal and, well, need say more? Do I think yet another increase will turn this around into a miracle? No. He'll probably deteriorate more.
Depression as a result of Lamictal DID happen in clinical studies. It IS listed as a possible side effect. Or perhaps reworded correctly, a direct effect. This happened in a minority of cases, but did happen. Lamictal is not either neutral or good, it can also be bad. Depends on the individual person's biochemistry.
The high Vitamin D dose caught my attention. Long story, yellow flag.
