Hi falsfall,
I agree with you about the nature of lithium -
i have always placed in the group of miracle
drugs, next to penicillin.Your situation sounds similar to mine except
i have taken it for more than 20 yrs. I also
tried getting off about 10 yrs. ago and got
depression after 3 months, and anxiety, but not
the electric head feelings i got this time -- that
maybe brain changes taking place after so long.It is encouraging to hear you speak of lithium
this way -- i am sorry you have to take the
additional drugs and that your dose is high,
but i have read that the aim is for the bloods,
so possibly your metabolism is different.Thanks again for the shared experience report -
i appreciate hearing from lithium users, as the
drug may be in competition right now.Squiggles
