I think i experienced remission after 6 mo. of gradual decline in lithium dose (unintended - the counterfeit/bad batch episode), and recovered with the right stuff. But I don't know if i was just withdrawing and the thyroxine was a culptrit going relatively high-- then another brand led to mixed states -- i don't think so. I think i recovered, so i would say my major med-- lithium (along with Synthroid and K) has cured me.
