[QUOTE="Tired and Hopeful, post: 668864, member: 19623"] Hi all ! I am a grandparent raising a 10 year old with a diagnosis of anxiety disorder (non-specified) with underlying ADD/ADHD and ODD. Aside from the nerve-wracking day to day life, we are going through the process of increasing gradually lamictil (lamotrogine). We started at 25 mg, went to 50 then to 100 and now are at 150. When we were at 50 mg most all the problems were gone. Then school started and things began to happen; we went up to 100 and things happened worse. Now we have increased to 150 and the poor boy seems to be a wreck of emotions...laughing and crying simultaneously, angry most of the time and more defiant than ever. Has anyone else had these issues with increasing this particular drug? This is the only one he is on and at the lower dose (with no school involved) I thought it was a miracle drug. Now, I am not so sure.................. [/QUOTE]
