"i&#039;m taking lamictal for bipolar type 2. i have been mentally ill for years and only started getting help recently. i&#039;ve tried prozac, wellbutrin, zoloft within the last year and none worked. i started taking lamictal about 4 months ago and have been on the dose of 300mg a day for about 2 1/2 months. it has made me feel much more stable, not perfect&hellip; but much more stable. my stable mood is depressed, so i still am adding an anti-depressant to my list of medications. i&#039;m 25 years old."
