Lamotrigine
"I have been on it for 3 months now and I still feel like it is helping. I am taking the generic. Overall I feel like I have settled into a middle range where before I had been in the depressed range, well below the normal. I have had a lot of ups (wedding, incredible family time) and downs (work stress, financial problems) the last month. I won't lie, there have been a few days when I end up back in bed feeling so depressed like I did earlier this year when I was at my lowest point ever. But... I have been able to get through the few tough days and bounce back to what I feel is my normal self. My husband helps me keep tabs on how I'm acting, and I've headed back up again, But I'd rather be on the "up" end than back on the low end."
