Well, I can understand his reluctance to cut a mood stabilizer because you are stable and he doesn't want to mess with this. I think the lamictal is a depression prophylactic. It's not a mood stabilizer at this point (my assumption which can be very wrong).
I understand wanting to limit the number of meds.... I'm take more than I ever thought and that troubles me. But I am doing better.
Would he even prescribe an ssri given your diagnosis. Do you still take abilify?
Maybe he'd go for a tiny bit of provigil? It's now an relatively inexpensive generic. I understand about those lingering symptoms, and I hope he's willing to address them if you ask.
