Do you take an antidepressant as well, or just the Lamictal? I can't do it on Lamictal alone, but combined with an antidepressant things are going pretty well now. If you're not taking a combo, maybe that would let you lower the Lamictal dose? But yeah, ask the pdoc...
I'm not allowed antidepressants. I'm pretty sure my pdoc doesn't believe in giving antidepressants to bipolar patients, due to the possibility of causing mania.

I was just at the pdoc this week, and I was going to ask, but got blindsided by him and my husband determining that I need to be in therapy. I didn't get much say in the matter.
