Stopped taking medication without telling my doctor

I actually got put on fluexotine and I think I have more depression. I feel more irritated and anger more than anything. I’m bipolar 2. I feel like lamotrigine helped in the first two months but after that, I kept having problems

Yeah. It was a god send when I first started on it, but after a while it wasn't strong enough to stave off the depression so then I started taking bupropion on top of the lamotrigine for the depression. If your main issue is depression and not mania you may want to ask your doctor about bupropion aka Wellbutrin. The only side effect I remember was that it wasn't super helpful for my IBS, but that's not bad compared to side effects for most anti-depressants. Are you bipolar 1 or 2?

I got tired of checking to see if I was having a rash. I changed to extended release and the pill was bigger so I couldn’t swallow it. I’m honestly glad I’m not on it anymore. I feel like it worked half the time but definitely increased my migraines.

I quit taking my lamotrigine too. I was having a lot of side effects.
