I'm currently titrating up on Lamictal (Lamotrigine). My pdoc says you shouldn't feel anything on it. (Obviously a small handful of people get hypo/mania or depression from it, but *realistically*, you shouldn't feel anything.) I'm only on my 2nd week of taking it.

As far as anxiety meds go... BuSpar is a pretty popular choice. If BuSpar doesn't work out for you, sometimes it's okay to take an antidepressant with a mood stabilizer. Antidepressants are known for helping anxiety. Just be careful because when my Lexapro (SSRI) dosage was high enough, I became manic according to my pdoc.
