How to know if it’s working?

I started taking lamictal 4 months ago for anxiety/depression and anger issues.

I slowly titrated up to 125mg, which is my dose for the past 2 months.

I don’t feel stable yet. The anger subsided, but I still get impatient with people and cry for no reason every once in a while. The crying spells were more frequent before lamictal, but they still happen now.

I feel like I had a bit of improvement, but not enough to feel stable.

How did you feel that made you realize it is working? What was the turning point?
