How often do you get depressed?
Is it seasonal or more frequent/rapid shifts?My experience is that anti-depressives should be evaluated over a period of 8-12 weeks since it will take a while before depression heals.
If you decide to quit Lamictal after consulting with your Doctor I beleive st john wort (600 mg) may help. It can be combined with another mood enhancer TMG (trimethylglycine)200 mg .
Both of these supplements have mild side effects.
SJW wort may cause skin irritation and can increase other drugs turn over rate. TMG may casuse insomnia in high doses (> 500 mg).
These supplement can be combined with fish oil.But first of all... evaluate Lamictal with your doctor.
