I added Paxil back to my med mix and after reading a post further above about Lamictal and Effexor, which is an SRI, I'm now wondering if Paxil (SRI) and the Lamictal I'm on (100 mg/day) is too much?
I'm feeling increasingly lightheaded, spacey, cannot concentrate on even the simplest things (like TV shows!) and am very anxious about feeling this way. I also find myself repeating certain things over and over (like brushing my teeth) to be sure I'm actually doing them, to get myself to *remember* doing them.
I want to remain on the Paxil, as it has done wonders in the past for my depression, social anxiety, ruminating thoughts, etc., but I'm no longer sure about the Lamictal. Could the addition of Paxil somehow be affecting the Lamictal, and the combo is too activating? I'm not even sure I'm expressing this correctly. HELP! Thanks.
