When I was first diagnosed I was depressed AF and would have done anything to feel better. So I didn't object to my pdoc prescribing Lamictal for me, and willingly took it even though it was kind of a wild ride at first.

Now, every now and then I look at my med list and wonder how the hell it all came to this. Six psych meds, seven if you count the thyroid medication that helps with depression. But the combination works, so I can't really complain even though I'd love to cut back to one or two meds. LOL like THAT'S gonna happen.
