"i am very pleased with the results of taking lamictal for my bp2. it definitely stabilized my moods. i felt better within weeks of starting this drug. i take a high dose (400 mg) without side effects. my irritability has been reduced and i no longer have to hide myself, as my depression has been lifted. i take paxil for my anxiety issues. i recommend therapy to go along with the medication, as awareness can be an important part of treatment."
