[QUOTE="totoro, post: 215592, member: 3155"] This is what is so hard! What works for one of us, well maybe might not work for another. We just don't know, that is why I also agree that going super low and slow with doses is so smart. I have been titrating my Lamictal back up for so long. I am only at 150 mg and it has been months! But I learned with my Topamax that what I thought was an OK medication at one level was not OK at another. I had been on Topamax for years only 50mg. My Docotor thought we could raise it because of it's MS properties... I went up to 200mg I think. Pretty slow. But not slow enough and too high. I was seeing tracers, it induced mania really bad. Scary!!! But now back at 50mg it is great. I use it for migraines and a little bit of it's MS properties. It seems to work well for me with the Lamictal. So for me I am still having bad anxiety, but I do not want to add anything else until I know we are at the level we want to be at with the Lamictal. Because a lot of times we would add a small dose of an AD. Just a thought and what I am going through! [/QUOTE]
