In reply to Doc wants to try Lithium but nervous!!!, posted by Rani on November 13, 2006, at 5:07:15
Thank you everyone for your posts.
I can live with the highs and lows but I cannot make big plans for my future and I also have to avoid stress (going back to uni). I do not have to go to uni, not even sure I want to - is just that I get so enthusiastic when I am up and make plans that I am not sure are best for me.
I will try the lithium.
I suppose I am just scared as there is some stigma in my mind attached to it. I hate being labelled.
I suppose I am in the middle range where I can live with my highs and lows but it is the sense of drive and agitation that I find exhausting. I just want to feel stable and I will try lithium to see how it works. He also wants me to continue taking my lexapro as well.
I dont really drink alcohol so thats not a problem. I hate the idea of weight gain!
