> 350 mg Lamictal. Are you taking it? How much?
I am currently taking 200mg. I experience a better antidepressant effect at 300mg, but it wreaks havoc with my memory and cognition at that dosage. By itself, Lamictal does nothing for me. To be of any sustained benefit, I need to take an antidepressant.
> Any sustained positive effects?
I only experience mild relief, but it is better than nothing. At least I can function well enough to take care of the basics.
> I did not do well with topomax the first time I tried it, but I wasn't taking Lamcictal then. I'd like to keep my brain able to think, but if the cognitive problems wear off, that would make it less scary.
Yes. Some of the posts along this thread are encouraging.
