Oy vey.
I take 1200 mg lithium b.i.d, or at least I used to until I spent the past month being a total assshole to the people I love, usually about an hour after taking my morning 600 mg of lithium.
Before that, without any changes to my regimen (20 mg Prozac, 200 mg Lamictal, 25 mg trazodone), I started to feel a weird sort of high throughout the day. And by high I mean illicit high, not mania.
I've since started taking all meds at night. The first night I peed my bed. Hasn't happened since and it's been 4 days.
I have no insurance or proof of residency (I moved to NY) so it would be difficult to see a doctor. Not to mention I am scared of getting a Dr. Mengele who would want to take me off lithium.
I'm just another American practicing medicine on myself.
