Invega just keeps me from the paranoia dillusions and impulsive behavior. The Lamictal works well with it to help stabilize my mood it also helped the side effects of Invega. I was so drowsy and dizzy on Invega that the Lamictal helped waken me up a bit and stable my mood. But I've had 20lb weight gain in 1 year.
