How Long Does Lamictal Take To Work?

How many weeks does it take for me to feel the full effect of Lamitcal. I started at 25mg for 2 weeks, then up to 50mg for 2 weeks, now on 100mg for almost 2 weeks. I would like to know how much longer it will take for the full effects to be felt. I am taking Lamictal (brand name) for anxiety.
