As much as I hated taking it, it is an excellent medication for management...
I took it for the first 3 years and never went back on it...
I now take Geodon and Buspar and just recently had all my meds increased...
If after talking to him and none of what we have suggested helps, talk to his Dr. he may just need his meds adjusted during this time...
Adjusted -
Not turned into a walking zombie...
By the 3rd year I was on Lithium, I was up to 4 pills a day and I didn't feel anything emotionally -
Nothing...
Don't let it go to that...
During this time in his life, he may just need an additional amount to keep himself even...
He should be able to tell you if the meds aren't working...
He will know if the feelings are becoming overwhelming and that right there means the meds may be working overtime to try to keep all the chemicals balanced in his mind.
May All Who Seek To Take My Life Be Put To Shame And Confusion; May All Who Desire My Ruin Be Turned Back In Disgrace. ~Psalm 40:14~
