Your description of mixed states sounds exactly like my kid. I am interested in what you said about lithium with the lamictal.
One time, her pdoc tried a combo of lithium and topomax. At first she seemed better, then she became very erratic and uncharacteristic in her behaviors and interactions with peers, teachers, etc. Don't know if lithium level wasn't right or if topomax had the bad effect. Pdoc put her back on combo of lithium and depakote. That doesn't seem to be working either, but not as bad as topomax.
Is lamictal related in any way to topomax?
