DE - No one ever said that pharmacists were very smart; I think the term "****" sums them up a little better. Everyone else was correct in their statements. Yes, you met with a cranky relief pharmacist. Pharmacists are in short supply now, so even the bad ones get jobs now.

As to knowing if Lamictal is used as a psych drug; most pharmacists would not know this. Using Lamictal as a mood stabilizer is an "off-label" use for the drug. It has not been approved for use as a mood stabilizer (ie. clinical trials have not been done by the company, yet.). Unless the pharmacist has come across this use for Lamictal, he/she probably would know about it.
