My hands tremble, and I'm thirsty, and I think I've gained a few pounds.... but other than that it's really not a problem. And it seems to be one of the only drugs that actually works for me, and seems to help me more than anything else so far (even if the improvement is still rather minimal).

> I was just wondering if anyone else likes lithium? Okay, like is a strong word, but.... doesn't mind maybe?I didn't mind being on lithium...when we added it to Paxil, it was one of the few drugs that worked for my depression. The only side effects I noticed were apathy, some frequent urination and minor weight gain.
