does anyone have BPI and OCD?

Posted by jdgjdg on February 18, 2004, at 20:25:58

I have OCD and currently take Lexapro(30mg). I have recently been diagnosed with bipolar I as well. My psychiatrist wants to keep me on the lexapro for the ocd, and mentioned lithium for the bipolar. Lithium seems very extreme and institutional to me. Is this just a stereotype or am I correct. Does it have bad side effects? Also, don't people feel "zombie" like on Lithium?

Any advice would be wonderful.
