Hi! I found Lithium and like my therapist says, it's like I found GOLD. It was the most amazing experience to go from what I totally now believe is BiPolar II to "normal." I could let EVERYTHING roll off my back, since it wasn't after all a life or death situation. I was happy, stable like NEVER before, I was capable of just being me and being focused and - everything was truly amazing. For a month. Now it's barely been two months - I upped it from 600mg a day to 900mg a day just in case it would keep more possible mania at bay. Well it probably did!! I feel almost back to pre-Lithium days. WHAT happened?? Can you be this low on Lithium just so soon after you were just so normal on it? I am #@$%&*ty at drinking enough water, but I do drink enough every time I'm thirsty though. HELP!!!!!! Everything has me crying again, pissed, irritated, and the feelings of loneliness (all the "#@$%&*" and there is a lot not having family or anyone there for me) was all deal-able before, and not difficult. Now, I'm back to cutting my wrists to rid myself of the inside pain. WHAT GIVEESSS!!!!?
