Alright, so if any of you have seen my posts you'll know I'm having a hell of a time trying to find a medicine that will work for my depression/anxiety. I have tried so many anti-depressants lately that my pdoc finally prescribed me Lamictal.

First let me tell you I have side effects to nearly every drug I take, be it an anti-depressant or an acid blocker or whatever else.

I have had an allergic reaction to Wellbutrin and Zoloft. Too many side effects on Cymbalta, Celexa, Viibryd, Pristiq, and Lexapro.

So at this point I have a feeling the typical ADs will not cut it for me so I am ready to try Lamictal BUT I have seen the side effects profile and I am a bit scared.

I am curious about the likelihood of side effects on Lamictal. Anybody on here as sensitive to medicine as I am? If so, have you tried Lamictal and what were the results?

I know everybody is different and nobody here can tell me how I will react to Lamictal. I am just curious to see what others have experienced.
