Or lamictal which takes so long to reach even 200 mg...

And many you cant even expect anything for at least a few weeks.
Yeah, I am looking for something that works quickly - Prozac started working in a matter of days, not even weeks. I woke up a different person. It was very impressive. And stayed that way.

Right now I am stable, so I guess what I would be looking for is "no change". I sure hope it is possible. I would hate to think that the current combo is unique in its ability to prevent episodes.
