How much Lamictal I need to take?
I have been on Bipolar Disorder Type 1 for 21 years of total 6 episodes. The most recent and most severe relapse was in 2013, finally ECT brought me back to normal. After that, I have been on 900 mg Lithium and 5 mg Zyprexa for maintenance. Now because I got Tardive Dyskinesia, I need to replace Zyprexa with Lamictal. My question is: What's the dosage of Lamictal I need to take (combined with 900 mg Lithium) for long term maintenance.
BTW, I'm male, 43 yrs, Asian, 5'10,152 pound. Thanks a lot!

Is it depression?
I have been feeling low for a while now. I have not been able to concentrate on work or anything. I have decided to avoid people because even the silliest of the things are affecting me. I have been complaining about this pain near my neck and shoulder region. I thought it was because of the pain I was feeling low. But turns out I have been in this perpetual state of feeling low. Sometimes I just go silent and blank. Won't be able to utter a work even if I really want to talk it out. Expressing things has become an impossible task now. I feel anxious. And I end up smoking. I workout every day and that's the only activity that's been keeping me a little sane. Otherwise all I feel like doing is just sleep. My confidence level has gone down. I feel I don't even know myself anymore. I just want to get rid of this horrible feeling.

I hear voices in my head
I've been hearing them from 5-6 years ago but they stopped when this male voice appeared. He protected me, comforted me and always put me to sleep. He asks me about my day but he doesn't have a name and he doesn't want a name..but we named him now. The other voices are bad voices who tells me negative things and tell me to harm myself.
