I think of suicide often even though I don't want to think such thoughts.

I don't want to lose the frail thing I call life at the moment.
I also, don't want to lose control again.

Well Lilly. It doesn't seem as though what you call life is working in your favor right now. Don't you think it would benefit you to feel a little better than suicidal and out of control? I know new drugs are scary, but you need to feel better than this.

Is there anyway you can take a semester off from school while getting used to the Lithium? That way if you don't feel it is working for you , you will have a chance to go back to p-doc and make adjustments. Just a thought.
