Lithium Orotate 10mg (1 Bottle), 60 Vegetarian Capsules

I am being treated for late disseminated neuronborreliosis (Lyme disease that has spread and infected my brain) and began experiencing the worst depression of my life - it was actually WORSE than depression, the only way to truly describe it is "anhedonia," I didn't want to to ANYTHING, despite having the energy and motivation to do SOMETHING.. the thought of even my favorite activities was almost repulsing! It was very strange and VERY uncomfortable. I did some research and found out that a lack of a certain neurotransmitter in the brain causes this, and lithium orotate supplements were beneficial in treating it, so I quickly ordered a bottle on Prime! I would have paid ten times what I did to feel better, but the price for Weyland's product is quite good. Their product arrived quickly and is definitely pharmacetical-grade: after over 10 years as a compounding pharmacy technician, I have seen some supplements with little or NO quality control... this is not one of them. Each capsule was equally full, there was no powder loose inside the bottle or on the capsules, and the gel caps have no taste at all! After one month of these, I can definitely say they have made a huge difference in my mood and outlook, even with extremely powerful IV antibiotics running around in my body. I can tell a difference in myself on the days I don't take them, so I try to remember to every night. I began taking two caps twice a day, morning and bedtime, because my mood was so strong. As it eased, in a few days I began just taking the two at bedtime, and the beneficial effects were maintained. I have not noticed any side effects while taking this supplement.Please note that this is NOT the same thing as the PRESCRIPTION DRUG Lithium Carbonate; the words on the end refer to different 'salts' of the molecule and are completely separate substances. If you are prescribed Lithium Carbonate and take this supplement, you will NOT experience the relief your doctor intended. Vice versa, this is NOT an anti-psychotic class drug, and will not produce the same effects (or side effects) as prescription Lithium Carbonate.It has been about 4 months since I started this product, and in the bustle of everything going on, I had forgotten to order a bottle in well over a month. Today I received a padded mailer with a bottle of Lithium Orotate inside, along with a UPS label and a tiny card. At first, my Mom was furious that I'd ordered it off Amazon without telling her or printing a receipt, but I protested, "I definitely didn't order this!!" Then I read the card and showed her. It was from Greg, the Founder of Weyland Brain Nutrition, who sent me a FREE bottle as a thank you for buying their product! ZERO gimmick, ZERO commitment, no auto-enroll or anything, just a thoughtful gift from a very smart company. By giving me this free bottle, they made sure that I 1) never forget their brand name, 2) definitely remember to buy another bottle when this one is used and c) hopped right on here and took a few minutes to write a review! How much good will can you buy for $17? A LOT! :) Thank you, Weyland!

This is my second bottle of Lithium Orotate. The first was 5mg elemental Lithium per cap. It’s been about 4 months of almost daily use. There were certain times I felt the need to double dose both to 10mg and 20mg because I felt really down and out. Other times I doubled doses just cause.Before I ever bought Lithium Orotate, I used to feel heavily depressed. Down on life. Sad. Living without feeling joy or sustaining any positivity. I’ve felt like that for about 2 to 3 months and it was a literal physical pain. I always used to hear about people feeling heavy hearted but I thought of it as just something to be said. Some of you might know what I’m talking about, it’s not just an old expression, it’s literally a heavy slow throbbing pain in your chest that you feel at he bottom of your heart. If you’ve ever read and learnt about more esoteric topics, that would be something like a wound to your energy body. I was going through some things that just brought me to lows that I’ve never had before.I have LO a shot. After the first 2 days, there was almost an immidiate noticeable effect, the heavy chest and mind full of negativity was just put aside. It was like 2 things happening at once, my emotions were regulated and my mind found something else to think about l. I wasn’t dwelling on pain. The pain was still existing, but I didn’t think about it as much or wallowed in it. It was like “meh, what can I do.... anyway what about the game, what’s the score”.After about 3 weeks, I could say that I had been very close to overcoming my depression. My default mode was no longer a dark cloud over my head and an anchor chained to the heart. I felt normal. I kept on using it till it finished and I got a higher dosage.In my personal experience, LO can be a great tool to try to help you overcome your depression and sadness. Some people call it “happy pills”, I disagree. I think of them more as pills to help you get back to your own self.Also, I’ve found them to be very useful to help with migraines and headaches.

One of my fav tools in my toolkit, I experience mood stabilization, been using for years, thought I'd give it a review since it seems out of stock and I want it back!!

I could feel a slight difference in moodiness but honestly not worth the 10lbs I put on in a month. Just moved to the city, all I’ve been doing is walking (went from a sedentary life) and somehow put on weight. I couldn’t figure it out considering I eat very healthy, no gluten or dairy - just works best for me. Lots of salads and soups, nothing processed. I’m still in my weight loss journey after losing about 60lbs, and somehow gained weight, could not figure it out. Then I realized the only thing I started doing differently was taking this supplement for the last almost two months.Lithium does build up in your thyroid and blocks iodine from my understanding now, please do your research before adding this to your supplement routine.It does work but proceed with caution if you’re shallow and care too much about gaining 10lbs :):):)
