How long does this suffering last?

Please share how long it took you to feel better after withdrawing from Lamictal.

I tapered off lamotrigine from 300 down to zero in almost 6 months, initially taking for bipolar. after a week of quitting the hell started. And now after two months I still feel the waves of major depression, irritability and urge to cry till i pass out. I had very bad breakdowns and headaches in first month. Now nearly 70 days off of it, I sometimes still get so out of control and am wondering is it originally related to lamotrigine withdrawal? [i take aripiprazol 2.5 now]
