I suggest you get off the Lamictal and the Tradadone. The one is for Bipolar dissorder which you aren't. You are just a guy who had the rug pulled out from under his feet. Most people without anxiety dissorders would have major anxiety with what you went through. I would think the Prozac and Xanax would be more than sufficient to control the Anxiety and Panic associated with OCD. I am not an advocate for taking handfulls of drugs even though some people need them, it becomes hard to distinguish which drug is doing what. You have Prozac which is an antidepressant which should help some with the OCD however Luvox is the standard drug for OCD, but if it is working don't mess with it, and Xanax which is the best antianxiety med out there. I take only Xanax for my OCD and it is all I need. I take 2-2.5 mg per day, but most days 2 mg is sufficient.
I can't say that I have ever had that kind of event in my life, but I do know that a person heals from things like these over time. SoccerDad had a great idea and that would be to forgive your wife. I don't think I would work towards reconciliation, but forgiveness is absolutely necesarry for your mental health.
Talk to your doctor and explain how much better you felt when you missed that dose and see if you can eliminate some of the drugs. You are on a LOT of drugs that, in my non-doctoral opinion, are not needed. See if you can wean yourself off of some of them and work on forgiving your wife.
I hope all works out for you!
