In reply to newbie on lithium ... please help, posted by francesco on February 1, 2004, at 17:16:35
In my experience Li has made no descernable alteration of cognition, only mood, and only exteme mood swings at that. After all, its a simple salt, not some complicated molecule. It will affect your internal organs if over prescribed or if you have vunerable kidneys or thyroid. You may have physiological side effects, diarrhea, dry mouth, etc. But if you are truely bi-polar - and from your longing for your manic life you probably are - it coulod save your life.
