I now understand why you invest yourself so much into Wellbutrin.
While looking at your cocktail the first think I though is why you dont increase your Lamictal to increase your chance of making Wellbutrin working for you.
I heard more than one time that some people that wasn't able to support Wellbutrin (effect not stable, inducing anxiety, agraving social phobia) was having good result in retrial after taking/increasing Lamictal.
I myself will, in time, retry wellbutrin now that I taking Lamictal, and at a very effective dose.. I take 150 BID.
BTW, even at 150 Lamictal antidepressant effect wasn't very impressive if detectable at all. But 300mg is totally another story. I something feel that it is the only thing that keeps me out of depression.
PS: Feels weird to try giving you advice since you know much more than me :P But.. I dare because I care and I feel you're not the narcissic kind. And who knows...
