In reply to Does Lithium have calming/antianxiety effects?, posted by Kev on January 27, 2000, at 21:20:02
Kev, is this nervous jittery state your baseline, or is it caused by a medication?
My experience, two months on lithium is that it doesn't exactly calm me, but my moods are better, I think more stable.
I am pretty anxious and jittery, but was that way pre-lithium. It is in part from the effexor, and in part from anxiety about stuff in my life and about my depression. I tend to get anxious when my mood improves because I am fearful of my depression returning.
