Worried about taking Lithium.

Posted , 2 users are following.

I've posted several times about my problems.

I've not been getting on very well latelly, everyday is a struggle to get through..

I take 10mg Lexapro but am wondering if it is too much. I have many side effects..though they are also the same as depression side effects.

I know that when I go to see my psychiatrist on Thursday she will want me to take lithium as well. I am dreading having to take more medication.

Anyone know anything about lithium an Lexapro.

take care

    Anything to do with medication best discussed with doctor.

    Everyone reacts differently to medication

    I don't have any experience with these drugs
