Lamictal..FDA approved for epilepsy..experimentally used for bipolar. I'm diagnosed major depressive with all its attributes, et., anxiety, compulsive, but cannot find where an epilepsy drug is used for depression. So, lets get it right. Antidepressants..okay for awhile, then suddenly its gas on the fire. Lamictal has proved to be very beneficial. Maybe I'm making a big deal out of nothing, but lets get it right. MD with bipolar characteristis, or the other way around. I could be completely normal. Take my wallet but not my Lamictal.
