"i&#039;ve been on lamictal for around 4-5 months. after my bipolar depression returned and wasn&#039;t being kept under control by my seroquel and prozac i did some research and saw lamictal had decent reviews. my doctor started me on the medication and within a week i began to feel more energized, and happier. that was at 100 mg. i now believe the depression is coming back and i have been upped to 200 mg, along with 40mg of prozac. the drug has done great things for me so far."
