you could also try raising your parnate 10 more mg for more immediate effect--i have been taking parnate a long time but only recently started lamictal. so far signs are VERY good but 1. my very very good MD cautioned me against sudden lamictal raises--they could provoke a rash which could be permanent, even lifethreatening and could end all chance of using lamictal.
I have had mild insomnia, i counteract it with trazodone. also SEPARATE your dose of lamictal into 2 x a day.
