[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 29969, member: 1550"] I was on Lithium. You can't just discontinue it!!!! It can cause seizures and be life threatening. You HAVE to wean off. Please, please get good medical advice. It took me about a week or two to wean off the medication. Also, I'd wonder about the Zoloft. That is far more apt to make a bipolar kid "lose it" than Lithium, and it can take months before Zoloft and other antidepressants cause a breakdown in BiPolar (BP) kids. I know from first hand experience. I didn't like Lithium because I felt dulled, but it didn't make me a danger to anyone else or myself. Zoloft put me in the hospital. I was a basket case on Zoloft. (((Hugs))) How scary for you. [/QUOTE]
