I took antidepressants for 25 yrs then a FNP took me off of, Ask an Expert

Medical Advice

I took antidepressants for 25 yrs then a FNP took me off of them and put me on Xanax three times daily. I went crazy. Got diagnosed as bipolar. Got put on Lamictal and now feel I am not bipolar. How can I get off lamictal and back on antidepressants? I am taking 200mg twice daily. I have had things I never experienced before since on the lamictal including suicidal ideation. panic attacks, tremors, confusion, poor concentration, visual disturbance and poor balance/ coordination.

Has anyone tapered off of 400mg of lamictal. I take 200mg twice daily?
