I don't know if you would experience withdrawal or not because I have never tried to quit lithium. I do know that the diarrhea will go away in about a week of increasing your dose. You just have to be patient and wait it out. My doc increased my lithium from 600mg a day to 1200mg a day and I got diarrhea and a slight upset stomach for about 3 days but it went away completely.
