Anyone on Lithium?

Emailed my doc because I’m feeling really off tonight. She is suggesting maybe lithium but I thought it makes people super sluggish.

Anyone here have experience?

I was on lithium for like 5 years. Tolerated it well. It helped me

Made me shake so bad.
Also went to the hospital because I overdosed on it.

@FatMama intentionally or by accident?

Intentionally. Was in hospital for 7 weeks

I took lithium supplements and it made me sluggish.

She said she called something in. I think she went with an SSRI but idk yet.

@FatMama I’m sorry you went through that.

Had a friend about 15 years back who said he was prescribed lithium for Bi-Polar.

It’s a loud word so to speak… and I’m ignorant about it I guess.

Wish I could be more helpful.

Burying ‘ the lead’ here maybe though but I hope by now you heard that I apologized to the appropriate channels about my crossing boundaries on the platform this past winter (give or take).

( I’m sorry you’re going through this, as well.)
