"i&#039;ve been on 150mg of lithium for 3 days, after 5 days i&#039;ll be on 300mg and then gradually go up. i&#039;ve suffered from bi polar &amp; depression for over 10 years, i&#039;ve been on 15 different antidepressants, antipsychotics and mood stabilizers. nothing seemed to even stabilize me. the past few months i&#039;ve gotten so bad to where i&#039;ve thought about suicide constantly. i was so depressed, easily irritated and cried over the littlest thing. lithium has so far, saved me. i feel the best i&#039;ve felt in a long time! i have no side effect as of yet. my mind is completely cleared of any negative thoughts. although it&#039;s only been 3 days i&#039;m hopeful things will keep getting better from here. i&#039;m so glad i tried lithium!!"
