I was pretty responsive to lithium…I do have a pretty typical bipolar I presentation. But then I got lithium toxicity and was taken off it. Cymbalta and later the SAD lamp seemed to help my depression more than lithium BUT I did have less severe intrusive SI thoughts on lithium. With just Seroquel and lamotrigine alone it was the worst I’d ever had with SI thinking.I do seem to tolerate Cymbalta and so far the SAD lamp at least for now. On lithium I still did have depression just not of the “thank God I don’t own a gun variety”.
