It went great. He said I am coping really well, and my coping strategies are quite good. (My close friends, being on the forum, my CBT practice, etc.)
He also prescribed a new med for me... A low dose of Wellbutrin to help with my mild depression and umm... My decreased libido. (Strangely my sex drive has plummeted since I started Lamictal, even when I had that hypomania episode, my performance was poor for my usual standard)
He said it is not common, but some men have decreased sexual ability on Lamictal. The problem started exactly when I started Lamictal, and it has been a few months of this... He was pretty confident that a low dose of Wellbutrin would fix that problem, plus help with the. Crushing blow to my self-esteem from the pending divorce.

Anyway, it went great. I feel better after seeing him.
