Starvos,
I worked up to 400 mgs of Lamictil and it seemed painfully slow. Until I reached a therapeutic level, I was anxious and edgy. I didn't feel any rage, but I wasn't comfortable in my own skin. That has gone away now.
Maybe you just need to give it more time?
As for not having a relationship, I have been single for the past 2 years due to the effects of my illness (Bipolar 1). I have ruined a lot of relationships and damaged a lot of people. It has taken me a long time to come to terms with this and look to the future. I think we need to take care of ourselves first, get our heads on straight, and then worry about filling our lives with others.
Of course, this is just the way that I've learned to cope.
I hope that things work out for you.
Girl
