Hi,
> If you don't mind my asking, what side effects are getting in the way?
Anxiety/anguish, akathisia and headache.
> Are there any drugs that you have had a partial response to in the past?Yes, reboxetine and clomipramine, which had their sexual s/e, reboxetine also gave me ache in my testicles, horrible! I've been thinking of ditching zoloft and remeron for a TCA like amitrip or nortrip, but this isn't the time to do it. I will let the lithium take its time it need before doing any switching. I'm wondering how i will notice the effect of lithium if it does work, will there be an 'omph'?
> I think it is smart to give the higher dosage of lithium a try. It might not work, but it would make sense not to overlook it while you are still on it. You might need something in the range of 0.4-0.6 mEQ/L. That should be enough of an exploration if you are not bipolar.
I think there's a high probability that i'll need at least 1200mg to reach blood levels of 0.4-0.6. Will be interesting to see where i am at monday.
