What are the effects of snorting lithium?

Answer 1

Bad idea, I'm not just another jerk that is going to shoot you down for trying to experiment. The thing with lithium is that if you get to much in your blood stream, which is very easy to do, it can kill you. Lithium is not one to mess with. If you are what I think you are and that is a kid at home that wants to get high, then really just smoke some weed. It's way healthier for you than snorting random pills. If you really feel the inclination to snort something my best recommendation would be to try something like ambien. Although I still think smoking some weed or even dropping acid or munchin on some shrooms would be better, this proves to be easy, conveinent and effective for most people. Whatever you do, don't kill yourself.

Answer 2

I was taking 600mg per day. Then was taken to 300mg for five days and removed completely. I think that perhaps that was too fast.

I am experiencing nausa, excessive thirst, headache, insomnia and rapid thoughts.

I have to tell you that I was taking the 600mg with 10mg of lexapro, my meds were changed to 5mg lexapro, 150 wellbutrin and 600mg of trileptal. So the withdrawl could be combined with taking the new medications as well.

Basically I feel like I'm going to die, I hope that it doesn't last much longer!
