Hi,
Can anyone tell me if this is the "power of suggestion" happening? I started lithium about a week ago while being weaned off of the depakote that for almost a year I have been taking for bipolar disorder, and I think already I can feel a change (optimistic one) is it possible to feel something this soon? I know one thing I am not as wiped out like when I was on the full dose of depakote. My brother has been on lithiun for about 26-30yrs and it has been a miracle drug for him after he had been through many different drug therapies. I hope it will prove to be that effective for me too. I also have been on celexa for almost a year too, I have not had any side effects at a 30mg per day dose but the 40mg gave me the "jerks". If anyone can tell me if this is my imagination or can it really be taking effect already, I just started on 3 pills a day (total 900mg a day) . I also would like to hear if anyone at this forum is or has been on lithium and what it did or did not do for you. Thanks
Stay well,
"darkeyes"
