I feel old mentally. Slower, more crotchety, cognition not as good. Maybe it’s me but maybe it’s the lithium. Anyone else feel kinda slow that takes it? What other side effects have you had?

      I do feel slower taking the Lithium but at the same time it's working for me

      I feel slower mentally. They say mania can cause brain damage. That’s what I keep thinking about, but more likely it’s all my meds slowing my cognition down. I am on 5 meds. I am on lithium at fairly low dose. My brain needs it.
