I am on 300m of lithium but that is just a tiny add-on to my other meds and even that small bit kicked me out of a depressive episode. I am still getting them so I probably need it upped. I have never been on an ap but am on lamictal and wellbutrin. I feel the impact of most meds very quickly- within a week or so.


As for new pdoc- whenever I see a new doctor of any type I usually sign a form to have my records transfered. I just switched therapists and my pdoc faxes all my visit notes to her which is nice.
