"i started lithium nearly 2 years ago,  thyroid went almost instantly along with energy and about 10% of my hair.  then followed by liver (they keep saying liver isn&#039;t affected but i never had a problem with my liver and had blood tests done 3 months before my lithium start). i have a huge personal event happen that shattered those around me but i am completely numb.  when you can&#039;t feel then you have to ask is it worth it."
