I am uncertain as to exactly how much water I drink a day but it is a lot. I would say at least 32 ounces. The only thing is, I gained about 15 pounds very quickly after I started lithium. I've been on it for a year and have gained just those 15 pounds. I feel like i'm retaining a lot of water so I'm thinking a lot of it is water weight. Has anyone else experienced this? Of course, I don't try to drink less water to make me feel less like a water balloon! lol. Yes, it's annoying that I have gained the weight but I don't worry about it too much because I feel so much better, mentally!
