Thanks so much to Theo, jerrympla, med empowered, and ceadmon for your feedback. I'm at a mental health "free clinic" so I don't have as much access to good information as I'd like.
Ceadmon--if you think of it, I'd love to know how it goes for you on Lamictal. The PTSD aspect is interesting because child abuse is part of my past--maybe this'll be the magic bullet...
Jerry, it's reassuring to know that you still felt creative as a musician/composer...
And to the others, it's good to know about watching the dose--I've always found that I'm incredibly sensitive to drugs anyway (like for instance 5mg/day of prozac is too much for me but a tiny dosage has a great effect...).
I will start a new thread about Prozac but I have seen that it destroys my ability to write. Just like one of you said about writer's block... where I used to have endless lyrics, there is nothing there. It's a little scary... discopainter
