You are a very patient person. I don't think I would have tolerated these side effects for so long.
I am pretty sure it is not the discontinuation of Lamictal. It was tapered very conservatively. I would discuss with your doctor your experiences. If Lexapro is producing great results except for the side effects, you could try reducing the dosage to 10 mg/day. If not, then I would not be hesitant to try something different.
What drugs have you tried so far?
Have you tried psychotherapy with or without medication?
