Did anyone notice significant mood changes(control of anger) when upping the dose?

Anyone have positive or negative effects?

Thanks

I struggle with anger and Lamictal has helped a lot. When I stopped taking Cymbalta, it seemed like I was pissed all of the time. I still deal with anger issues but not like I did. I recall one time, before I was taking a sufficient dosage at Lamictal, I was approached in the WalMart parking by a person panhandling. She had new jeans and I, on the other hand, was just getting by on eating beans and 50 cent boxes of macaroni and cheese. I became furious and started screaming obscenities at her. When I finally got into my vehicle I just sat there, stunned at what I'd just done. The Lamictal has helped a lot in preventing that kind of behavior.
