It's very possible as your dose is being titrated up that it will relieve much of the racing mind your struggling with.

What coping skills are you using to help manage the racing thoughts?
Yes, Lamictal mostly treats bipolar depression, not mania or the anxiety that comes with it. Usually an anti-psychotic helps with mania, or lithium or depakote. I am taking 400 mg of lamictal and am experiencing mostly mania and little to no depression.
