You know, when he told me about the lithium orotate, I thought, "He dosn't believe me" I came home and researched it half expecting it to be some sort of scam/placebo thing like male enhancement! I have been told my whole life just to get a grip on my attitude, that I was just moody and needed to controle it....I am not thrilled by the diagnosis, but am grateful to finnally know what is going on and to be addressing it. The first psuc doc I saw said ADD and put me on focalin, a stimulant....2 weeks of mania later I got a 2nd opinion.....so being sleepy could be from stopping the focalin and then I added the lithium...who knows, I am glad I found this site! I laughed today...it was nice.
