Inceltown posted:Lithium is the drug of last resort. That psych should be seriously reprimanded for doing that and, if they don't stop, deregistered. That’s weird because this is not what my, admittedly ancient, psychiatrist told me. I forget her argument for it but something along the lines of “tried and true*” and “different side effects to depakote!” https://www.webmd.com/bipolar-disorder/news/20160512/lithium-beats-newer-meds-for-bipolar-disorder-study-finds *as long as your thyroid holds out hope you like going to the clinic for blood draws!

I don't like to discredit other people's experiences, but I feel like I have to defend lithium. I've been on it for almost 2 decades now and I can confidently say that without it I probably wouldn't be here today. The problem with psych meds is that they are way more variable than something like an antibiotic, so the fact that it did so much good for me doesn't invalidate the experiences of people who found it unbearable. Sorry to drag the funny picture thread down but I do worry about people seeking psychiatric help and being scared away by horror stories. None of those stories are wrong, they just aren't the full picture. I have pms if anyone needs someone to talk to, but advocating mental health and expanding it to benefit more people is very important to me so I wanted to provide another perspective without denying the issues other posters have found in both the system and the medications it provides.

There are alot less serious side effect medicines out there and lithium is sort of a last resort now. Its just alot of people have that same mood erasure problem with lithium so it being put into soda disgusted me.

DandyLion posted:Do they recommend certain anti-depressants for single folks specifically because they inhibit libido? If that person wants to lessen their sex drive, it can be a consideration. As someone who's been in many support groups and programs though I assure you, crazy people gently caress. It's like AA where everyone tells you its against the rules or just plain stupid but almost no one listens. Turns out physical closeness, even hollow and brief closeness, is something people crave when they're feeling lost and alone and completely misunderstood, and dealing with mental illness is often about feeling lost and alone and misunderstood. People recognizing those patterns and how harmful they can be to their overall treatment do often jump at the chance for a medication with the nice side effect of taking the horny out of it. The main goal for most people getting treatment though is to live a fulfilling and happy life, and unless you're ace or have another reason to not want sex most people see healthy (and physical) romantic relationships and potentially a family as a major goal which means the bonerkiller pills are going to be a temporary measure. Long term medication for mental health is basically a list of side effects vs benefits and deciding which combo sucks least and helps most for you. But I'll stop talking about this in what is possibly the least fitting thread for it, and just say again that if anyone needs to talk or vent or could use help finding resources I will always be happy to respond to PMs about it. No one should feel so alone that they're even fighting themselves constantly
