goofycow Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 I decided to ween(sp) myself off litium after the holidays. It has been almost a month and no more embarrasing "accidents!" No more shaking hands and my sense of balance seems to have improved! Of course I feel more irritable. But what's a little irritablity among friends?

HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted February 1, 2006 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted February 1, 2006 You should talk to your doctor before you take yourself off this drug. I assume you are bi-polar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofycow Posted February 3, 2006 Author Share Posted February 3, 2006 i told my doctor what I was going to do before I did it & no I have never been diagnosed as bi-polar until I got to Fayetteville AR. I complained about lower back & leg pain waking me up at night so my shrink put me on litium. Is lower back & leg pain keeping you awake at night a sypmtom of being bi-polar?
