Bipolar Disorde
"Diag: Bipolar 2 with predominant depression, plus panic disorder. I have been taking a very low starter dose (25mg) of Lamictal for about 3 weeks. I&#039;m due to up the dose to 50mg now. Aside from my anti-panic emergency medicine and proprananol for blood pressure, I&#039;ve never &quot;upped&quot; a dose of anything. I typically give up on a medicine for one reason or another (not effective, negative side effects, complicated dosing, cost, etc). Lamictal is a prescription that I intend to up my dose to 50mg though, and will do so gladly. People have commented on a more calm &amp; &quot;mellow&quot; mood, a greater tolerance to stress and irritations, and being more pleasant to others. I&#039;m on a slightly more even keel now &amp; look forward to seeing what&#039;s next with increased dose"
