In reply to lithium side effects, posted by Yesac on March 3, 2004, at 15:42:06
My only main side effect on Li is diarrhea occasionally (sorry to get graphic, but I'm talking about loose stools not explosive uncontrollable diarrhea which would be more of a problem). I don't eat as much fiber as I should, so I don't know whether I could control this minor problem with diet.
Another side effect I notice is I no longer experience the euphoria from excess alcohol consumption. When intoxicated my motor skills are impaired like everyone else, but there is not much of a high. I still enjoy a beer or two and a glass of wine, but there is no big buzz from getting loaded. Maybe this is a good thing.
