Lithium

So it's been recommended I start Lithium to try and get on top of my depression, which is totally crippling me at the moment. Was wondering if anybody had any experience - good or bad. Was meant to have my first dose last night but I put it down somewhere when I got in from the chemist and couldn't for the life of me find them anywhere! They've turned up this morning, in a really bizarre place. Weird.

I haven't got much to say about Lithium. My consultant is trying to avoid using it with me though which may say something.

I just wanted to say though it's good to see you posting if only brief. Wondered how you've been.

No idea about the stuff, although from what I can gather most people seem to use it these days as a last resort or in those with a diagnosis of Bipolar / Manic Depression aka Bipolar I when other meds have not worked... I do have a good friend who takes it who I met in the hospital who has Bipolar II and it works for her, apart from the intial weight gain she is a lot more better on it.


It's nice to see you back posting...
