Yesterday I thought I had crashed into another typical depressive episode. I've had single days of energetic depression during hypomanic episodes before, but this depression was not energetic by any means. Felt like normal, totally mentally and physically draining depression. But today I woke up feeling fine, then good, and now I'm feeling pretty much hypomanic again? I'm so happy and full of energy and ideas. Is it possible that Lithium is doing this? I've only been on it for a week and a half but I read online it can start working earlier or later depending on the person. Although I thought Lithium was supposed to level your mood out so that you are neither depressed nor hypomanic. I don't know very much about it since this is my first time on it, but I'd sure take this over depression anyday!
