Lamictal 150mg and EnLyte

 I have been on a reduced amount of Lamictal for nearly two weeks now. I was on 200mg for years. Now I'm on 150 mg. Thanksgiving was a good day. However the day before that and the days after it until yesterday I was feeling fairly down and hurt. I know the cause of the depression was the ectopic pregnancy, but I think the reduction in Lamictal made it even worse. I hadn't been down and stayed down for several days like that for awhile. My desire to take a shower was gone and I felt like crying even though I'm not much of a crier.

Last night I finally had the desire and energy to wash my hair in the shower. Last night was the first time I took EnLyte.  They say you won't feel the full effects of it for two weeks just like any other medication. However,  I tend to be very sensitive and notice things right away. Today is day two of taking EnLyte. I hope today is a good day and the days to follow are as well. It's an all natural prescription that's supposed to help improve my mood and give me more energy. I'm also waiting on an iron and Herb supplement that should help my energy as well. I'm hopeful these changes will be beneficial. I have a follow-up appointment with my psychiatric nurse practitioner tomorrow. Wondering what we'll do with my medication. Will we continue to go down on the Lamictal since the EnLyte seems to be working or will we stop where we're at since the decrease in Lamictal seemed to increase my depression and make me feel down. 

Today I'm just sitting here playing games on my phone so far. Trying to find the motivation to clean the house so I can get the Christmas stuff out. Still don't really have the motivation to do it, but I feel more willing than I did the last few days. I know I shouldn't go back to sleep at this point. We'll see what I do with this day.
