Lithium really isn't antidopaminergic as much as it is a dopamine system stabilizer.
I was resisting any form of bipolar diagnosis, but am quite pleased with how a low dose of lithium has improved my life. Lithium has been like a dimmer switch on a set of high intensity flood lights shining right at me.
Anyhow, you say your symptoms overlap with hypothyroidism. What have your top three symptoms been over the past 6 months?
I assume you have had your thyroid checked?
If there is any kind of bipolarity or cycling, then a mood stabilizer could bring relief.
