Low dose lithium

[samack]

I have been struggling with severe major depression for what seems an eternity. Meds don't hold Recently I've been prescribed a low dose of lithium as augmentation to regular antidepressants. It didn't take effect. Has anyone else tried this, and did it work?

Dr. will do lithium levels blood test monthly to see if they need to updose if needed.

It's works great for me. Has helped me a lot.
