People with lithium toxicity usually feel sick and look sick; often compared to flu-like symptoms (nauseau, vomiting, diarrhea). You don't sound quite like this. That said, your level could be a tad high; maybe not. If you cut down on your dose for a couple of days (halve it, say) not much is going to happen vis a vis your psych symtpoms.
The best plan would be to call whomever manages your meds or their backup...is that an option?
