How does lithium reduce suicidal ideation?
In: 49
I was put on lithium during the worst of my depression and the difference was shocking. There was a literal buzzing sensation in the back of my head and it was like I had not spent the last several years in a suicidal spiral.
Complete 180 from where I had been just a day before. I stayed on it for about two weeks, so that they could adjust my therapy and medicine.
It was definitely one of the key factors that saved my life.
