Hi, Linkadge.

Have you ever tried Lamictal? I don't recall you ever taking it.

I had thought quite a few years ago that because lamotrigine reduces glutamate release in the hippocampus and thalamus, dopamine activity increases in the nucleus accumbens via disinhibition. It was pretty simplistic in retrospect. However, increased reward produced by lamotrigine has been demonstrated.

I dream of things that never were and ask why not.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
