h3llo Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 all day long i've felt like im choking on my own saliva. my throat is always dry and i'm physically tired. granted i had a tiring day with a ton of driving. first to my therapist who i told one of my short story ideas to and he said he wanted to see it. also i might only be able to see him once a month cause he has back problems and can't work as much. my car is getting repaired and will cost a lot and i will owe my parents even more including my class money and i am really upset about that. but still those things shouldn't be physically effecting me that much. it's really uncomfortable and i wonder if i will be able to sleep at all. maybe its from going off my medication?

melissaw72 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Lithium can definitely do it ... it did for me when I was on it. How long have you been off your medication? Did you go off all of it? Does your pdoc know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
writehellarandomshiny Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Could be. I assume you have been, but have you been drinking water? I know that when I drink soda instead of water, I get really thirsty because soda actually dehydrates you. I'd talk to your psychatrist about it when you see them again.

Jen78 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Lithium gave me nasty dry mouth, try upping your water intake. Get some hard candy to suck on too, that can help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
