Dear Manny,
Lamotrigine is NOT routinely used in the treatment of OCD. But if your doctor diagnosed your OCD as a symptom of mood disorder, he/she will prescribe lamotrigine. Talk to your doctor about it. In a bipolar mood disorder, OCD, Depression etc are common symptoms.

Dear lybrate user. I can understand. As you are aware, depression is a neuro chemical disorder and therefore the treatment should be targeted towards enhancing or reducing those chemicals biologically. But these medicines are used for maintaining the balance. In that sense, with the present medicines, you will have to continue forever. I suggest online cognitive therapy. Take care.

Hi! If you are suffering from OCD definitely you can overcome naturally also. Either undergo treatment from a Professional Psychologist at your locality or online Psychologist for the same. If you are interested you can contact me either through text chat or online consultation yes you are most welcome. No worries. Nature has given many solutions and ways to solve the problem, but if you cannot find one, definitely you need to seek a Professional help.

Dear lybrate-user,
Are you taking both Celith and Epitic as mood stabilizers for bipolar disorder?
If so, please take both. Sometimes lithium carbonate helps well to control mania but not depression. Lamotrigine controls depression well.

Lamotrigine is usually titrated up gradually, but do not do it on your own. The psychiatrist will peridocally assess the benefits and risks and reach the optimal level, for some it may be 100, for some much higher. Good luck.

Your are being treated for a fairly serious condition and I recommend that you seek the help of a counselor too. There are certain adaptations that will suit you during the elation phase and there are certain behaviors that are required during the depressed phases. In the meantime, you can do certain things that will give you benefits anyway. Emotional therapy will alleviate a lot of the problems faced in this condition because it is a mood disorder. You need to particularly look at your levels ...more

You desperately need therapy. The challenges of everyday living pose a major stress to people and they learn to cope with it through various adaptations, techniques, and tools. In the case of the bipolar condition your adjustability is more difficult than the normal population. Apart from this there are many issues of the mind that medication cannot address, and these are ideally worked out in therapy. Please put yourself on a tight time-schedule with exercises, interesting activities, functiona...more
