I took the Lithium Oratate for bipolar disorder 2, it was OK and it made my mood more stable, and you don’t need to have blood tests like you would with Lithium Carbonate.
I am on Chlorpromazine and Fluoxetine at the moment so I don’t get manic or depressed, so there is no need to take Lithium.
If severe depression is no.1 and mania is no.10, then Lithium keeps you around no.5.
When I am on Chlorpromazine and Fluoxetine my mood stays between no.3 and no.6.
Lithium can be very effective in treating rapid cycling bipolar 1 disorder.
Here is a YouTube video about Lithium Oratate.

Oh yeah and Topamax and trazadone I forgot

That’s probably it. I’ve only taken 3 of those in the last 4 years…the other 15 came in the previous 3 years

What didn’t work for me: Zyprexa, Seroquel, Zoloft, Paxil, Remeron, Trazedone

What has worked for me: Geodon, Latuda, Haldol, Wellbutrin, Xanax, Ativan, Lunesta, Ambien

That about covers it.

I have only taken 2 in the past 6 years. Risperdal and ativan. Is this unusual?

I couldnt tolerate side-effects of geodon, resperidral, haldol, abilify, vraylar. Only two aap’s could tolerate were seroquel and the one i take now, zyprexa. Got put on prozac after attempt, despite not having depression. And then brintellix and wellbutrin tried for negative symptoms, no good. Took Colonopan for 3 years. Ritalin for a month.
