Just to be sure you are aware that Lamictal is not really an anti-depressant drug. It is an anti-epileptic drug. But like a lot of other drugs, it also happens to be good at mood stabilizing and sometimes helps depression too. It just seems to me from your posts that you are stressing the depression aid before the mood stabilizer. IMHO if you are hypo now but starting to come down, it would probably be a good time to try it.

One thing to keep in mind, this is not a drug that you can just stop and start when you want to or change the dose often. You must trickle up and down slowly. if you decide to try it, be sure to start with the starter dose, you should have been given a pack that starts you off. This in not a good drug to be non-compliant with.
