Hmmm only 3 hours and it effects you that quickly? Wow, it takes me 3 days and by day 5 I am a complete monster! Hang in there, do you take something for sleeping? Maybe try that. Things usually get better for me if I sleep them off. Big hugs!

You are probably very sensitive to your meds schedual...I know I am,I try to religiously take them at th same time each evening...or I get freaky really fast

I also take Lithium. Be thankful you remembered to take it. Try using an alarm of some kind, I use my cell phone, when it's time to take my meds, I have a hard time remembering 3 x a day so I need help. You should feel "better" within the next few hours again.

Are you obsessing about taking it at the same time every time ?

I always take it when I am eating during the day, which varies.

As long as it is within a 24 hour period, it should not make a lot of difference as long as you take it. A few hours should not cause unneccessary agitation.

It sounds more like a fear of forgetting that causes the agitation ?

Hi Chuggs, I think that might be psychological, take you lithium now. Glad to know you have your internet back.

I'm not sure. Just an observation. After that fight I didn't know what to think. I still feel a little bit of the fire in my chest.

Emotional over physical.

i take my lithium when I eat at night. Varies by 3-5 hours i'd say. Doesn't matter, it's all about keeping the level up. You remembered! Thats what matters. don't worry about the delay. You'll be ok.
