[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 406765, member: 2423"] Is there a reason the psychiatrist is making so many medication changes at once? Our rule of thumb is to make one medication change at a time. That way you know beyond a doubt whether it's helping or hurting. If you introduce Abilify just three days into Lamictal, you're going to have no idea about Lamictal's efficacy. I've had two kids on Lamictal for several years, and they've done very well on it with no side effects. It is weight-neutral, and it has helped with emotional reactivity and depressive symptoms.
