question: Hello doctor, I am diagnosed with OCD and possibly with depression. I have taken several different medications over the years and was most recently taking Lexapro 20 mg, Lamotrigine 50 mg, and Vyvanse 70 mg. The Lamotrigine is the newest medication I was prescribed. I had gotten the dose to 150 mg, but then I started having panic attacks, so we lowered the dose to 100 mg. That was fine for about a week, and then I started having panic attacks at that dose. We lowered the dose to 50 mg, and in two weeks, I started having panic attacks at that dose as well. It was helping with my depressed mood, but I have not taken it in the last three days. I am starting to feel more depressed, and I am not sure if it would be fine to take it at 25 mg or just stop taking it all together. I was previously prescribed Abilify 2 to 5 mg, but I was concerned that it was making me gain weight.
