Is Lamotrigine Advisable For Bipolar II Disorder And SAD Disorder?

My 28 year old son has been diagnosed with Bipolar II and SAD. Been prescribed lamotrigine. Wondering if there could also been something psychologically going on besides a chemical imbalance. He says his brain as well as his body are just not working correctly. He is so frustrated with himself and life.
