I am sorry that you are suffering so badly. You are among friends here, many of whom are in the same situation that you are.
I took lamotrigine and memantine at the same time in order to treat my bipolar depression. Adding memantine 20 mg/day didn't help at all, but I did not experience any negative effects. I did try increasing to 40 mg/day, but I felt drunk on the first day, so I decided to stop taking it. I should not have increased the dosage so quickly and I should have taken it for a few more days to see if my cognition improved. The drunk feeling might have been a temporary side effect.
