Yeah Im interested to know more about why Lithium is so popular and not some of the newer meds. My pdoc said it was the most effective in stabilising moods. I dont care, Im not going on it. I have been stable in the past on Lamictal, Seroquel and Zeldox/Geodon. (I only stopped lamictal because of the cost, Seroquel because of the dumbarseness and weightgain, and I am still on Zeldox and dont intend to change)
