Bipolar Disorder Support Group
Bipolar disorder is not just a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders marked by periods of abnormally high energy and euphoria, often accompanied by bouts of clinical depression. This is the place to talk about your experience with bipolar disorder, learn from others' experiences, and find support.
I have to take lithium 2x a day. I know you are supporting keep a level. I assume that means taking it every day at the same time(s)? it also says to take it with food. This is going to be very challenging.
Also. has anyone tried CBD oil?? I am thinking about trying it.

It depends on what your proc prescribed. I take Lithium and at this time of year I take 1 in the morning and 2 at night. The rest of the year I take 1 in the morning and 1 at night. Ask your pdoc how much you should take. Hugs.

I used to take it twice a day but we changed from the pill to the capsule and I take it all at night now. I didn’t know it should be taken with food. But mom is in nursing skill and they just went over lithium and she said taking it with milk helps to digest it better? Or something of the sort.

You should try to take it as close to the same times each day as possible.

I use CBD and couldn’t deal without it. It helps me big time

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
