[QUOTE="KateM, post: 106473, member: 1973"] My brother was diagnosis'd with BiPolar (BP) at age 19. He's been on Lithium since then (except for a brief period when he thought he "didn't need it anymore" and found out he sure did!) This is the gold standard for BiPolar (BP). My brother is now 44, married, has a great job, etc. When my other brother was diagnosis'd with BiPolar (BP) two years ago,at age 40, this was the medication that stopped the mania.He continues on this medication. He, too, is married with a good job and is a great, involved father. My son is 20, diagnosis with Aspergers but has some mood issues as well. Lithium helps him, although for him, the best mood stabilizer has been Depakote. difficult child has been on Lithium for 2 years with no side effects. [/QUOTE]
