This is a very grounded summary of Li O supplementation - the statement about "not much research" is to be found across the board for anything remotely cheap or *Unpatentable* that manufactures cannot screw the public over for. Oh what a world. If you want to try this supplement read up about it for yourself.

This is essentially microdosing lithium to kind of missing from the soil/modern agriculture/food level dose. it is a far far cry from the enormous stultifying, toxic dose given to most sufferers of Bipolar 1.

I have to admit I've been dabbling with this supplement for over a decade & I love its 'downer' affect - sometimes I have 2, very rarely 4 in one day -  if im really het up, usually I just have one every evening with some relaxant, ant-anxiety herb tincture.

I was telling people I had bipolar at the age of 19 - I did not know if Bipolar was 'real' or not or if it has a biological foundation or not, which it does, but I started saying it at 19.

I went to GP's regularily throughout my 20's with "god awful debilitating depression" which were sometimes followed by crazy, impulsive, extremely damaging & dangerous risk taking periods - to be told that if I did not want the Prozac then there was nothing wrong with me. That seemed to be the main message that was on repeat when I managed to crawl into the Dr's office. It wasn't till I had developed poverty, adversity & hypo mania related Anorexia from 2003 - 2008 aged about 36 - 41 that anyone (a friend who was a GP actually) began to take me seriously.

Unfortunately when I first got to see a Psychiatrist in 2007 my vivid explanation on how I now knew that I had been suffering from long term entity possession did not sufficiently persuade said professional who then  laughed at me when I told him I had alway assumed that I had Bipolar. Helpful it was not. detrimental it really was.
