Long term lithium

Posted by sandwich shy on July 2, 2008, at 21:14:04

I have just started lithium about 2 months ago and was wondering if anyone could tell me about the efficacy of taking it long term. I can't actually get a diagnosis but several that have been suggested are PTSD, depression, agoraphobia, anti social personality disorder. The Lithium has gotten rid of anger outbursts 100% at 900 mg per day but my doc says my blood levels are not high enough and upped me to 1200mg today. I am nervous enough about ingesting heavy metals on purpose but a sound reason for increasing the dose when I have already received the benefit escapes me. Thanks
