Lithium isn't an immediate acting medication. And even though you may not feel like it's doing anything, its been shown to grow grey matter in areas on the brain. It's neuroprotective and coming off of it may affect stability. If you feel flat then speak to your doc and maybe a reduction would be sufficient.
Of course you can come it (w doc approval), but don't assume taking it daily isn't "good for you" even if you don't "feel it".
