Bipolar Disorde
"I am labeled bipolar II. I take 1200 mg of lithium a day. It has helped in my case.  No more fast cycling manias, no real bouts of depression. The downside is that hurt the libido as I have seen some studies where it can decrease testerone and my level is low. It all started when I started the lithium. I experience flat emotion, what made me realize it was it was hard to grieve when my mom passe. Typically, nothing never really effects me, I rarely feel stress or pressured,  I am indifferent to most things. I am on Wellbutrin, lamictal and occasional Xanax but the lithium is the culprit I believe. So now it&#039;s a trade off, get off it and play merry go round the meds Or keep on it and deal with the side effects, I go back and forth on it."
