So tomorrow marks a big day... I start lithium. I'm pretty scared but my psychiatrist says that she thinks it could be life changing. The truth is that I can't continue as I am. Bloody schizo-affective disorder with rapid cycling. It's killing me.
The question is... can you please reassure me about it? I know that it'll take a few weeks to get the dose right but how fast does it work? I'm weaning off my current mood stabilizer. Also did you have lots of side effects?
