I'm new to using Lamactil and Remeron I wanted to know if anyone else takes these meds and how it works for you? My meds were changed I was taking 1050 mg of oxcarbezepine and it depleted sodiums levels and took trazadone but meds were changed to Lamactil and Remeron does anyone have trouble breathing on it?

I have been on Lamictal and Vraylar for about three months and I love it. I recently added Ritalin and I feel great. I’ve tried Seroquel, olanzapine, Cymbalta, Prozac and many others, but I find the current combination works really well.

I take 30mg of Lamotrigine and 200mg of Mirtazapine. I have had no side effects on these medications what so ever. In fact, they help me a lot. I have gained a lot of weight though
