Yes, I was exhausted on Lithium. The doc added Provigil (a stimulant that is non-addicting & doesn't make you feel wired) to my morning meds. Unfortunatety, I had a bunch of other side effects on Lithium (the most dangerous being impaired kidney function) so I had to get off it. It really worked for my mood, though.

I still take Provigil (& now Concerta, too) with Abilify & Lamictal. Helps with the tiredness a lot & increases motivation. Hope the Lithium works well for you. I know it has helped lots of people.--Suzy
