In reply to Lithium at low doses?, posted by Tag on October 28, 2002, at 17:10:40
> Has anyone experienced being on just a little bit of lithium instead of the so called theraputic dose? If so, did it help? I am getting dizzy from this lamictal and gabatril even at low doses. Feels like one of those dog toys who heads bob around.
> Before when I took the lowest theraputic dose of lithium ...it was zombieville for me.It sounds like you have the same problem that I have: Mood stabilization = vegetization!
I tried lithium 10 years ago. No matter what dose I took, BLAH!! It took me years to feel like my old miserable self again, but it's better than the intrusive, restraining, thought controlling feeling that Li gave me. I would'nt give that stuff to my dog!
Could I ask how much lamictal you take? I'm at 50mg and it's starting to give me that flat empty feeling that I hate.
