Hi guys - I would greatly appreciate opinions.
My psych told me that if I go off Lithium, lamictal is the alternative. Im actually not bipolar but im told i am at risk with a family history of it. What are the opinions on Lithium vs. Lamictal? I hate Lithium - I lack emotions and excitement and I am generally sluggish. My main concern is the ability to sleep- for six months I have been on Lithium and Mirtazipine. Have made a step down from 1000 to 800 for Lithium. I have been sleeping OK with both these meds - Im told it may be the Mirtazipine . Final question - has anyone gone off (safely ) all meds and then returned to a normal sleep pattern? |
