I think it's a good idea to drop the Lithium in a week if you're not feeling any better.
Good luck. I know you are in a hellish state right now. I've been there. I didn't have the eating issues but I have experienced everything else, it's awful.
Please try your best to hang it there. I do think you might want to consider finding a way to get some free counseling services until you get to see the eating disorder specialist.
