I'm thinking of adding Lamictal to the mix, as my cocktail may be losing some of its efficacy. But I will say, it was great initially for me. Any insight?

Thanks!
Hey, Latuda worked pretty good for me but only at 120mg! Also, I take Lamictal at 600mg since at that dose it has anti-depressant properties. If you gain weight on Pristiq or inhanced Effexor, I prefer Fetzima by a long shot! But all those have helped my bipolar depression, but it's all about finding the right dose and med cocktail. Btw, Lithium is very effective for augmenting ADs as well...good luck!
