I have been off of Lithium for 1 week now and feel ok. I ended up going cold turkey because I just got angry and did. I do feel hypoish, but I am keeping it in check by forcing myself to sleep a stiff routine and meditating 2 times a day, as well as, breathing exercises. I feel pretty good overall and am not having mood swings...just consistently mildly hypo. The strangest reaction has occurred though...I never expected or read about this: slowed digestion. Food usually processes at a decent rate for me, but now, things have slowed down big time. Weird, huh? Maybe in time things will normalize i hope because I don't like feeling so bloated and like a cherub : ).
