I don't know what effect the lithium issues will have for you. I've gone off it for toxicity a few times without any immediately noticeable effects.
That sounds awful what you went through. The anti psychotics are scary meds. Some people can take them. My mom takes ablilify for anixieties and she's perfectly fine on it. go figure. I"m still struggling all afternoon. i walked around the neighborhood this morning and till some of the yard to plant more grass this afternoon. none of which helped. and damn I'm so hot blooded for some reason. it's 67 degrees out but it felt like 80. i even broke a sweat. i don't know if it's cause i gained 5 pounds this summer or the meds. I did notice when i started feeling better last night i wasn't hot blooded anymore and was slightly cold like i normally would be. But this morning with the tiredness feeling came back the hot blooded did too.
