What causes nightmares and feeling disoriented while on Lithium Carbonate supplements?
human
PLEASE me .I live in ohio. I was presrcibed lithium carbonate in 1990 It was helping me become normal in society. again it was doing miracles for me. However after time I was irritated and was not able to be by self. mood swings. rapid change of behavior. I wanted off of it. My dr said NO WAY! it is working and much better than the alternative. Then he had a solution. LITHIOBID-  now litobid is off the market and I was back on lithium carb. I said okay maybe I will not feel the way i did 28 years ago. Well Now i have nite mares. I also have the same behaviorial signs from before. Is lithobid the exact same as eskalith?? I took lybrium for a short period of time several years ago and I liked the way I felt. I do have a pscy dr. but would love your opinion

lithobid and eskalith both contains the salt lithium carbonate. both are the same thing. lithium does wonders when it comes to stabalise your mood. thats why your psychiatrist doesnt want to change lithium. i am not sure why do you have nightmares and irritability because lithium usually doesnot cause it. librium is a benzodiazepine ,a drug used as anxiolytic and sleeping agent which you can use occassionally.
