I've recently started back on lithium. This being the second time I've been on lithium in the last 7 months now. I feel like I can really notice my mood beginning to level out 2 weeks in. The only problem is now I feel restless & bored again, same thing that happened last time & caused me to stop cold turkey which was poor decision making at its finest. I tried to explain this too my pdoc & see if I can try valproate or lamotrigine but he said lithium first. It's like it works but doesn't. I'm sick of this general feeling of discontent. Anyone else here on lithium? Can you relate?
