Lithium is a great substance and I wish I had stuck with it. Lithium is one of the medications I don't ever hear much about poop out. However if the med is stopped and started, there is a very real chance it will not work again. Some people believe this is because of a kind of epileptogenic kindling that is created when the brain comes off and on.
I wish I had stuck with it. I felt very normal on it, but now when I try it it doesnt do anything.
I don't doubt that things might improve for me, but I think that if I am to improve I need to find a doctor that will perhaps give an idea of mine a try, because going to the doctor again and getting another prescription for an SSRI is just too much for me. I've seen 5 psyciatrists and 3 doctors in the past 6 months and they all just keep upping the SSRI's. I feel like I've lost all hope.
