Hi, I was just wondering if anyone here is on lithium and if so, have they gained weight and developed really bad acne? These are things I can do without given the way I'm feeling now. x

My DH is a psychiatrist and those are side-effects. Sorry no-one replied before now. Don't stop taking it without advice though.
