3rd Day of Lithium
Переглядів 6 тис.10 років тому
Today is the 3rd day of Lithium, and although it's too soon to tell if I'm really having the side-effects from Lithium, I do have an increase of thirst, urination, and dry mouth. Getting a little tired after taking it too. Co-inky-dink? Je ne sais pas...

    Hello miss, where are you currently at in your journey? I'm getting off Lithium right now and trying to live a medication-free life. They have messed me up even more, not just Lithium. I wish you well in your journey, please know you are not alone. I went into a bad relapse last year where I went through psychosis due to a professional not really knowing what they are doing and lost a lot of memories. I have had digestion issues, skin issues, menstrual cycle issues, and I have gained about 20-30 lbs from it. Thanks for taking the time to make this video, it encourages me to get the hell off this crap. It's just that, it sucks. Anyway hope all is well! <3

    Big psychopathic Pharma... Wants you to take there patient lithium Carbonate it's bind with carbon... Very dangerous with lots of side effects.. But you guess it they'll also sell you more of there side affect patient drugs to stop those side affects... Take natural over the counter lithium Orotate... An tell big Pharma to shove there greedy lying drugs up there A** 👈😀

      I've been on lithium orotate (5mg) for a couple of years now and one per day used to work. Now I'm on two per day and it does work mostly, but some of my depressive episodes are horrendous. I wonder whether going on lithium carbonate with a doctor would be more helpful.

    Just remember that there are so many of us out there and you are never alone. Everyday is a new challenge for us and I will be taking meds for the rest of my life and I don't have an issue with that as at least now I can focus and hold a job without fighting. I still have no friends as this is a tough 1 for me but as time goes bye I will take the step to make friends. Thank you for your video's.

  • @jaycharaco4647
    @jaycharaco4647 7 років тому

    Water drinking , and drinking too much water can be bad. Now not to give you a long explanation. Just sip the water, you need to trick the thirst, understand lithium triggers the thirst, even when you are not really thirsty. So trick the thirst, just sip and little keep drinking the same amount of water. 6 glasses per day is healthy. Maybe you were not drinking 6 or 8 glasses of water, which helps tremendously on blood cleansing. cure Actually is not about changing the way you think, but actually changing what you read, its about the information you put in your mind and what you do, what you think..I recommend Reading Mind Power by John Kehoe fantastic book reading this info it helped me transform my life, it cured! not only bipolar, but series of other mental illnesses you may have. Even after divorce for 30 years. I feel better than never, i got to know the real me, and purpose in life..

    Look into Lithium Orotate. There is a good video on UA-cam by Dr. John Gray. It is a natural form with supposively no side effects. I am still researching it myself. From what I am reading it does the same exact thing more effectively.

      This medicine is fucking poison lithium in any form... its side effects are so terrible and it doesn't even work that well.
