> Since I've started the med, I go from hypomanic in the morning, depressed from noon to 6pm, then feel normal the rest of the night.
Another way of looking at this is that perhaps the Trileptal is only partially effective and is now producing very variable results, probably revolving around peaks and troughs in blood levels. I would take it twice a day. If you get stuck in depression, you can add back the Lamictal, now that you have a more anti-manic mood stabilizer on board. Keep working. I think you are getting close.
You didn't add Depakote to Lamictal, did you?
