Hey hey. I'm going to piggy back on this. I don't know what the outcome was for you, Ordinarygirl, but my psych just prescribed me 100mg of Lithium because of a bad manic upswing that manifested yesterday into a full blown episode.

Before this I was on Paxil, Abilify and Lamictal. Abilify made me anxious so she removed that. Paxil made me feel like a zombie so she removed that. I was on just 300mg of Lamictal for about 6 months before my mood swings started again.

I just want to know what your progress was, or if anyone else has any input regarding side effects, etc. All I know is that I've been under the impression that it's pretty hardcore. My friend has SEVERE Bipolar I and takes it.
