a more detailed history will get u better advice
Dear you have put many questions in scenario while asking only about withdrawal. It is true many drugs specifically psychotropics have withdrawal of different intensity. The drugs you mentioned ( loratidine, lamatrogine/lamictal ) have no significant withdrawal symptoms. May be it is due to your over- sensitivity. You lr observation is right that some ant depressants cause manic situation specially in those who are diagnosed Bopolar affective disorder. You are suggested to re-visit psychiatrist for re-examination in currrent siting for a better diagnosis and management and adress your concerns too.

some individuals have more prolonged withdrawals along with mood symptoms, so therapy can be a better option for depression.
