I'm on lamictal. 200mg twice a day. AM/PM. Im on it as a mood stabilizer. I didn't think it would be prescribed as an antidepressant. I've never heard of saphris. I hope the combo really helps you. I'm sorry your feeling so bad. The way you described yr depression is EXACTLY how I've felt before and still do but not as much. Getting the right meds and therapy have helped me so much. Be easy on yer self. Don't put too much pressure on things so you don't put yr self down. You are suffering from a very debilitating illness. Give yr body time to adjust to these new meds. It could take a.little while for yr mind to calm down. Do little things to make yr self feel good. Take a bath. Sit outside and breathe in the fresh air. Watch yr fav movies or tv shows. Give yr self some little victories like making even one phone call or go to an appt you have scheduled. I found that when I'm really down like you are to.just do one thing at a time. Don't look at the big picture or you'll overwhelm yr self. Try and find happiness in the small stuff no matter how silly it may seem to you. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Joining the forum is a very positive step. Keep me or anyone here posted on how yr doing. Like let us know how this new med combo works for you. We do care. Feel free to pm me anytime. Hugs
