No, as long as you don't reach toxic doses
(much greater than 600 mg) lithium has extremely potent neuroprotective properties, it lower stress hormone cortisol, and increases total grey matter. (you can do a google search for lithium + grey matter)

Anyhow, lithium will leave no long term brain dammage, infact only the opposite. It will sort of buffer your brain power, when you come off of it your brain power will very quickly return. If you have a propensity towards mania, then be careful, you can easily go manic by dropping too much too soo, it's a real rush, but be slow about all changes.
