> LinkadgeI thought that Lithium helped depression as well. For some reason when I think of vathium I think of those people who have type 1 bipolar (I know that others use it) and that it's the only med they can use. They have more instance of being manic than depressed. But I know they do eventually get VERY depressed. But for some reason I thought that an anti-depressant would do more hard than good. I realise that I writing in general terms and outside the scope of the article, but I am curious because I know that you know a lot about meds and that you would be able to set me straight in my state of confusion regarding bipolar 1 treatment.
Bipolar Type 2, ED-NOS, Self-hatred
