I think I'm scared of increasing my risk of TD and EPS, and of turning into an over-medicated zombie (its happened before...) Anyway, you're right, if my doc recommends a low dose of lithium, I just may say yes, although I also don't have health coverage, so those blood tests could get expensive. Also, I seem sensitive to some meds; I got excessively high depakote blood levels off a standard anti-manic dose and got really sick. Now I'm wary of anything requiring blood level tests b/c of that experience.
