I think you should try to stop worrying; just give it the 2 weeks and see how you feel. If you're still feeling lousy, taper the lithium, just like your doc mentioned. Maybe this combo will be great for you, just as it is. Maybe it will require some calibration. Either way, it sounds like you're in good hands.In terms of cleaning up your med cocktail, I would think that once your mood-stabilizer(s) are dosed correctly and you've made the final yes/no decision on the lithium, you'll probably need less ambien and klonopin. That's just been my experience...your experience may be entirely different.
