It's a salt and weight gain is common. Overtime, it wears out your thyroid and you can become hypothyroid which also causes weight gain.
Nausea was my biggest problem when I took it.
Lithium is not hard core. People associate it with "manic depression" (old school) and make a big deal out of it.
It has saved many lives.
