I can relate with Dalilah. I am currently on 400mg lamictal, 100mg prozac, 90mg remeron and just recently 600mg lithium. Although I have only been on lithium for 6 days, I have already felt it's AD effect. My depression is not returning as much in the late afternoon/evening as before the lithium was added. Eventually, I would like to be on lamictal and lithium only as this combo seems to work the best in relieving my unipolar depression and from my research online will probably be effective on bipolar depression.
