Question for bipolars on lithium:
IF your lithium levels were VERY low (wayyy below therapeutic levels), would you likely have ANGER/irritability problems as a result?
My lithium level is downright puny (.02 or even lower) and I'm having anger/irrit. problems but I'm not sure if it is solely because my lithium level is so low OR if it is because of the Remeron that I'm taking...OR, if it is a combo of the two--- I've read that bipolars who were taking an AD WITHOUT a mood stabilizer could really become destabilized...would that cause anger/irrit.? I'm basically on an AD (Remeron) without a mood stabilizer (since my Li levels are almost non-existant) but I never get any euphoric "highs".
