I'm fine now. I started taking 25 mg again and will wait to see my doctor about trying to taper off again the proper way.

I don't really want to stay on this medication. During that week I could barely sleep and would wake up exhausted. It was a terrible experience.

I feel like I am dependent on it, now. Lithium has never given me withdrawals like this.

I know its the medication because I started to retake it again consistently for 3-4 days and my sleep and mood returned to normal.
