I am BP II. I have been on Lamictal 200mg for 7 months or so. I started hitting some turbulence in my moods, so my doc and I decided to add a bit of Lithium to my mix. I'm only taking 600mg, but I've been clenching my teeth like mad (almost like the time I went on Zoloft!). Why would Lithium cause this reaction? Also--I went pretty hypomanic shortly after we added the Li on. Seems like Li should have a calming effect--not the opposite!! What's up with my broken brain?
Thanks for any educated guesses.
