Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have adjustment disorder and in that case, there is no need to take lithium. You can stop it. Better to take prodep 20mg or 40mg. At such dose, you would not get any side effects. In case, you need further help, you can ask. Rest, you can consult with your psychiatrist.

Thanks
