Clozapine is the only daily psych med I have, but I take Ativan if I need some calming down.

Just Lamictal for now. What would help with the agitation I am feeling?

Mine are in my signature. I think it was a combination of risperidone and cipralex that pulled me out of my depression after over a year.

Benzodiazepines.

You could. Klonopin is commonly prescribed for agitation. I don't know that they'd do anything for aggression, however. I've seen several people report success using Lamictal for that.

Thanks. I am just getting started back on it, currently on 50 mg, I think last time I went up to 100mg before adding Wellbutrin, but I still had quite the edge at times.

Wellbutrin is almost guaranteed to make aggression worse, if you deal with it in the first place.

Interesting, I had a lot of luck with it, it is the only AD I can tolerate.

After going round and round with anti-psychotics, I'm back on Lamictal. It's had the best results so far until my last PDoc coupled it with Wellbutrin and then took both away after that combo failed.
