My first psychiatrist put me on lithium right away at 18 after my first episode of illness. According to my latest psychiatrist, that was probably a very bad idea and is almost unheard of. Since my overdose I've not been on lithium, I've been on semi-sodium valproate and I seem stable on it.

Yeah, obviously taking meds all your life is not such a bad thing. It's just that if it could be truly known at some point that it was no longer necessary I'd like to be meds free purely because of the side-effects to meds.
