Lamictal really starts being therapeutic at 200 mg. Lithium is really pointless at 150 mg and is probably conferring more side effects than anything else. The therapeutic range of lithium is determined by blood level and at minimum should be .6. I can't tell you what dose it will take to hit .6 but it certaainly is higher than 150 mg.
You're not sure you're bipolar?
