I'm barely in the therapeutic range.

Lithium has been known to cause tremors. When I was on it my hands shook so bad I couldn’t understand my own writing. And I couldn’t do my jewelry making which is one of the things I did to cope back then. So for those reasons and more I won’t take lithium again. But lithium didn’t even help my mood at all so it was a bad med all around for me.
