Hi. I've been on the stuff for several years.....I'm chronic, and it has been helpful in basically changing that to episodic. I now have the reputation around home as being forgetful, absent-minded, etc. I usually attribute that to being middle-aged, forgetting that lithium could be the cause. It is the fine motor tremors that drive me nuts, especially if I'm a bit nervous, anxious, or tired. I am usually at least one of those.
I tried to cut back on the drug at one point, but the damn attacks returned with a vengeance, and have never been under good control since then. Hope this helps!
