Hello. I've asked alot of questions lately with some very helpful replies... so I thought I would ask another.
I have been on Lithium for 11 weeks at 750mg. I keep wondering when it will kick in and help me with my depression. Any input? My brother has been on 600mg for 8 months and he is doing pretty darn well. He said at the end of 4 months he started to have days where he felt pretty good. He says it has helped his anxiety and depression. I haven't felt much to date and I am frustrated. I am not on a AD at this time. I tried 8 or 9 ADs over the last 1.5 years and all they do is make me more anxious/aggitated. I am considering trying Nardil as it has helped me in the past... but I'd really like to give the Lithium room to do it's work instead. On the other hand I haven't felt well in so long I would welcome the help of Nardil I guess. I'm not sure I can handle another drug trial to be honest though.
Thanks
John
