Hi there. New to this site and desperate for some advice.
I am not Bipolar but I really need the advice of someone with experience of Lithium.
I had a major depressive episode and was put on Lithium - and had been on Mirtazipine (Remeron) also previous to Lithium.
I stabilised and have been on these 2 medicines since. However, I am sure that me stabilising was due to other factors (not meds related)
However, I have completely lost libido and have noticed myself to be increasingly flat and lacking feeling.
The good thing is that I am sleeping well. But i desperately want to get OFF Lithium. Is it likely that the LITHIUM is helping me sleep or is it Mirtazipine ?
I am hoping it is the Remeron as I am tempted to losing the Lithium.
Does Lithium help some people sleep?
Would love some advice.

(Apologies if I am posting in the incorrect place - I couldnt find a way of creating a new thread)
