• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Hi everyone , I am new here. I AM REALLY STRUGGLING WITH MY NEW MED,LITHIUM. ANYONE ELSE STRUGGLE WITH THIS MED?
My father had bi-polar disorder and he took lithium as a treatment. The primary side effects, for him, were a hand tremor, increased urination and psoriasis. All of these side effects bothered him to no end, but he did manage to cope with them for the rest of his life.

Welcome to CF. :wave:
