Advice on reducing Lamictal dosage for energy release?

Hello Lamictal/Lamotrigine Gang👋🏻, Has anyone had a psychiatrist suggest going down a small dose every few weeks for ‘energy release’ / fatigue? Over the last 8 months I’ve gone from 300mg to 200mg and my energy has never been better but I’m concerned that this strategy isn’t sustainable. Ta!

Bro lamotragine made me so drowsy I stopped taking it all together and now I just take Wellbutrin it doesn’t really treat bipolar but it helps with comorbidities
