Nope, no hypomania or mania on Lamictal.

Nope, never tried an antidepressant with Lamictal. The only time I have taken an antidepressant I got hypomanic.

Yes, I loved Lamictal because I felt the depression leaving me without sending me to the moon. I was able to go down on the Lithium I am on as the lamictal increased.

I started feeling the depression lift at 50 mg per day. I got to 100 mg per day and had a nice case of anticonvulsant hypersensitivity syndrome, but I was less depressed LOL

No comment, for I have not ever taken Paxil. I hate SSRIs now and probably will refuse them in the future.

1. has anyone got manic from lamictal/lamotrigine, if yes how?
2. Does anyone use an antidepressant with lamictal
3. Did lamictal remove the bipolar depression for you/ i.e. did you REALLY feel the change
4. At what stage of dosage did you start to feel the change
5. Has anyone used paxil with lamictal with no problem
