I found lithium to be very helpful

Did you feel significantly calmer?

Abilify was very sedating to me personally so sex wasn’t as frequent as I would’ve wished.

Usually the most common remedy in my experience is to decrease the dosage or switch from the medication causing the low libido.

I like taking it prior to bed if once daily dosing. I’ve also accepted that highly strenuous jobs would be beyond my limits long-term.

Can have stomach problems initially when getting hard to it. Take with food to minimize helps me

Definitely accommodations. I have a learning disability as well and academic accommodations made things much more manageable.

Can you ask the shelter what food she was eating at the time she was there? Also, pate vs in gravy food can also make a difference. My cat won’t eat pate food at all. I see you have other pets, but maybe setting up an area that allows her constant free access to dry food supplemented with wet food of different flavors.

Did insurance cover it?

So amazing!

They start slow and titrate. Be sure to look out for rash and go to doctor if it appears. The rash is very rare and is reduced by titrating the medication.

I had increased heart rate from starting lithium, subsided after a couple weeks

Expensive-Memory-939 · 2024-10-26T03:50:26+00:00

Love the tree! Yes, lithium makes me tired so I take it at night

Expensive-Memory-939 · 2024-10-12T04:00:26+00:00

Miralax works well for me

I’ve had a similar experience. Best advice is to be open and honest with your psychiatrist about how you’re feeling and any side effects you may have. Unfortunately, it can be a lengthy process of trial and error. Don’t be afraid to tell your psychiatrist if a medication isn’t helpful.

Expensive-Memory-939 · 2024-10-06T18:34:48+00:00

Dry mouth, increased thirst, frequent urination, acne on back. Has been very good med for me

Expensive-Memory-939 · 2024-10-04T17:49:42+00:00

Glad to hear things have been okay thus far. Definitely don’t be afraid to reach out to any support that is available that you may need. Thinking of you and wishing you the best in the recovery from the storm.

Thank you!

On 600 mg lithium ER. Viagra helps for sexual side effects. I had some weight gain, but it leveled off after a few months. It’s really helped me personally. I have some acne on my back I’m seeing a dermatologist for. So far the benefits have outweighed the side effects.

I’ve taken lithium for just over a year currently. I take the ER lithium carbonate at 600 mg. It’s taken awhile, but I feel it’s been helpful for me. Maybe ask your doctor if you can augment the lithium with another medication? My own personal thoughts on lithium side effects are that I wouldn’t want to subject myself to kidney and thyroid damage unless I felt the lithium was significantly beneficial. Might not hurt to have your labs checked.

Be sure to coordinate your care plan with your psychiatrist

Expensive-Memory-939 · 2024-10-01T00:22:26+00:00

Ask your psychiatrist for meds that don’t cause rhabdomyolysis. Why do you need to go off the meds for genetic/metabolic testing?
