Hi Workhorse

Hey I don't think you gave in to Lithium but I can understand that you can feel sad about the fact that you're spouse feels that way. Give it some time, getting better, seeing improvements must feel much better than not taking that medication. I don't know if I made any sense..but basically you're spouse will probably be much more happy when you start feeling all good, stable and ready to get back on the saddle (work for exemple, or other meaningfull things for yourself and you're couple. So keep it up.
