Back from the doctor and he (or me, tbh) couldn't be sure lamotrigine was making me more depressed as I discontinued the medication and was comparing my past weeks with this "feeling good" rush I had.
So he kept all my dosages the same for now and I'll track the effects for another month. I'm sure I'm not getting it wrong and it made me more depressed, but I'm so confused with the sudden withdraw symptoms that it was better to do as he said.
I still wonder if other people experience increased depression when taking antiepileptics as mood stabilizers.
