I know it can give us side effects at first.
But is there anyone else that can help me in saying that Lithium is ACE??? I have met many in England that agree.
I hear criticism here about Lithium.It's obviously personal.So is my tribute.
I owe my life to this hard bastard of a drug.It reminds me of my eldest brother.Tough but Caring.
It truly saved me.Yeah, along with the other stuff.
I just tire of the detractors.

My friend died early this morning. I have been visiting her on a different floors at the same hospital I was in than when I was discharged I would visit daily. Last night I knew it wouldn't be long until she was gone. The good part was lots and lots of people were coming in and out it was like grand central station, the best part was it was nothing but laughter and love. The reason why I'm...

This was an orientation at a banquet hall. It was nice food provided basically the history of the hospita info. There was some unorganized issues. But overall I'm thrilled to be with the company. Jesus has really answered and came through. I'm just grateful this will be a simple job that pays well and allows me to go home at a decent hour. Where I can heal my mind,cry grow at home. Read myself...
Plenty here are miserable..haha
It is the only long-term med I have been on from Day 1 of diagnosis.
Good partnership throughout, but after nearly 14 years I want to be med free.
Diet is the essential part of Bipolar that can keep one stable. I have seen enough evidence of this to make it a viable option for me. It will take time, money and a lot of perseverance....but I will do it.

I guess whatever works for each person is great for them.
I've cut it by 25%.
It does it's job.Diet and stuff is important.
Who's ti say that the time on Lithium has aided evolution of our minds in other ways.In illness, we educate ourselves.That's a must.

I am coming off but in a structured and measured way.
Not because of stigma or because I can't cope with some side effect.
Best of Bollocks to ya.Beeper.
Actually I like my lithium, these are the only two untranslated English words I know.
But yeah, Lithium is a good drug for our illness...an absolute miracle for many.
Migraines from Mars ! Balance problems....memory stuff..etc
I just kept saying to myself that it's brain chemistry.
That's deep stuff.On a molecular level and then some more !!
I was Zombie too.
I never had DS or books.
Just the NHS and it's heroes and fuckwits.
I wanted my medal...like Muttley!!
No Pain no mental recovery gain

Forgetting names is a side effect of Lithium btw.
Bollocks is another.
