I agree< I don't think this proposed "Lithium unitherapy" will work. However, I'm trying it. one day down and ok.

> Hi Scott, if I take *standard* doses of AD's I do get hypomanic and worsen. However, if I don't take any I might not have a job for very long. If I take "plenty" of mood stabilizer, so I approach a "standard" dose of antidepressant, then I can't function either (cognitively). So, I take just a little AD and it works fairly well. Finding methods to divide things that small is a real hassle however.
