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. |

hi there welcome to the forums. This is an old thread...
You may want to start a new one for yourself so we can easily follow you. I could not tell what meds you are currently taking so am not sure how to respond. bizi

Mina It is not so much "hardcore." It is just that it was the first medication they came up with for mania. It is a very old medication that is well studied and safe for most people. Drink water with it. I hope it helps you. Mari |
