In reply to Re: Lithium Orotate for depression? Anyone using this, posted by Hombre on September 20, 2010, at 21:21:53
hi Hombre, the Chinese supplement sounds interesting...what is it called and what are the herbs in the formula? I just ordered lithium orotate and cell membrane complex (Ca, Mg, and K) made by advanced research. I figured it is worth giving a go to see how I react to low levels of lithium...my body/system is uber sensitive I am fairly certain that if lithium is going to be effective, that the lower levels will suit me better than the ultra high near toxicity levels.
I do want to see a psychiatrist about it, but at the moment I am uninsured, so having a pre-existing condition may not be so great when I do pickup insurance. My plan is to try this and other alternatives for a couple of months first, then see a doc...or sooner if the depression returns full force. Felt a tinge of anxiety and that "falling" feeling for a couple of hours and was able to redirect my attention to music and and a mindless activity. This is pretty similar in pattern to what happened last year.
