I quit taking my meds a couple months ago and restarted taking 200 mg of lamictal 3 days ago because of bad anxiety. I had quit taking it to lose weight because zyprexa made me gain 60 lbs or so. I have lost about 30 lbs in yhe last couple months. After getting off meds I didn't feel depressed but sooo spacey and anxious on and off. I meet with a new pdoc on Thursday. Risperdal is the only med that works great for spaciness/Excessive daydreaming. So I want to get on it again. But the thing is, every time I take risperdal after not taking it, it gives me hypomania, which is great, sort of. But not good long term. But after the hypomania ends it keeps me stable and normal. All other aps make me gain weight, tired, or anxious. So should I take it again even though it gives me hypomania?
