Blood Pressure and Mania/Hypomania

Hello everyone,

I would like to know if anyone else experiences uneasiness, heart beating fast when in high mood. I have been worried about this lately and I went to check my blood pressure from a pharmacy and it was 141/87, pulse - 92. There was no strenuous exercise before the readings.

I am currently in treatment for bipolar disorder. I have an appointment with my doctor first week in April, but I just want to know if anyone else experiences this, and if it could be a sign of high mood. #Bipolar1 #BipolarDisorder #Mania

Lithium therapy

I am wondering what peoples experience with lithium has been like. It has just reached therapeutic level (0.6) in my bloods. I have no side effects. None at all. No shakes, no nausea, diarrhoea, increased thirst or tiredness. In fact I feel quite alert and my sleep has greatly improved. However, my bloods have come back with an under active thyroid (since starting). What is peoples experience with lithium long term? I have taken almost every other medication imaginable. #lithium #Bipolar1 #BipolarDisorder #HypothyroidismUnderactiveThyroidDisease
