I once tried Lithium at 600mg/day. Start slow and low. I never went past 900mg. Unfortunatley, I didn't stick it out long enough. It tended to dull my emotions. My type of mild bipolar is more depression symptoms. Don't get me wrong, I think it's a great drug and it may very well work for you. Good Luck.
