"i have been on various antidepressants and benzo&#039;s for 25 years due to depression (bipolar ii) and anxiety.  lamictal has changed my life.  the depression lifted and the anxiety went away.  i dropped the xanax and prozac and feel unbelievably well on 300mg of just lamictal.  i&#039;ve felt this way for two years so far.  i wish i had found it years ago.  i do think that the prozac and xanax were causing anxiety/depression/exhaustion.  i&#039;m doing fantastic on the lamictal alone."
