I hope lithium works for you but if not just remember everyone reacts to different meds differently. Lithium gave me a minor tremor I wasnt willing to live with. Depakote has been completely weight neutral for me. And some meds say they are more safe as in not mania inducing but definitely caused it for me. If you have negative side effects you can always choose to change to something else.

Keep us updated on how this works out
