My body does well on Lithium and in fact most have it. I was tapered off it and had an episode two weeks later. I resulted in me being hospitalized. I had to get back on Lithium. I began a Risperdal (AP) as a second mood stabilizer and ended up learn it had a side effect of decreased sex drive which was great. I was working my bf over. LOL. I then had to start a third mood stabilizer, Lamectal. Unfortunately I have severe bipolar 1 with extreme mania. My symptoms still break through a bit a have to try hard to contain myself. But Lithium has REALLY helped me a great deal. I would be a felon if I was not on Lithium that or dead.
