My psychiatrist never considered lithium, since I'm such an atypical sort of bi-polar. (I think the best supporting diagnostic criteria at this point is that I respond best to bi-polar depression meds -- Lamictal, Seroquel rather than SSRIs or SNRIs.)
I will run the lithium idea past him. I am actually thinking I'll take the hair loss and dry mouth in place of how crappy I am feeling, and consider going back on Lamictal. I am not just depressed but very edgy, almost like my brain is on an irritable upper.
You are so helpful...are you a doctor? I am curious.
