Hi there! Happy new year to you too :) Very pleased hear how much you've improved.
>I tried going down to 1200 for a week and my depression returned so I am back up to 1500 for the time being until my doctor and I can figure something out. For me lithium has been a life changer so I am grateful for it. It will just take some fiddling with as far as dosing to get things right.
How long have you been on lithium? Perhaps you'll be able to re-try 1200mg in a few months time. I think you've only been on it a few weeks? It could be that you'll need to be stable for longer before considering any further adjustments.
