Hi Chloe,
So you still have swings of some sort even with the set of meds you can come up with right now? Consistency would be great. But maybe I need to rethink stability and think of it more like driving a car, with continual small variations in the path, and needing to change a bit here and there. At the moment I'd like to just know there's nothing else wrong with me, so I'll probably go to the internist.
No, no birth control pills.
Whoa, someone knocking at my door, gotta go.
Thanks for the good wishes.Emme

> Sorry you are having this awful anxiety. I have never been able to tolerate Lamictal, so I am so help in that area.
> But I do find that sometimes even thouogh I take the same meds day in and day out, they don't have the same effect day in, day out. Some days or weeks, I feel over medicated and a bit foggy. Then a few days later, I can feel terribly under medicated, anxious, giddy, short fused, rageful. I find it extremely difficult to feel even or consistant. I don't see why I can't unite myself. I am constantly evolving in the mood department...

> Lastly, have you had any hormonal changes or gone on or off a pill? I had to stop my BCP that i was taking active pills only. And when I stopped. SEvere depression. When I resumed, severe anxiety that is finally settling after three weeks...Thank God the anxiety is leaving. The angst and pressured feeling is awful for me. I am sorry you are suffering...So I guess thyroid, hormones and lamictal dosage would be good places to focus.
