∙ 13y agoNo absolutly not. Lithium is very dangerous and dosage has to be monitored by a doctor. You cannot feel the effects of lithium immediately, it takes weeks even months of proper dosage and blood tests to see if it is helping. Lithium is a form of battery acid (not the acid that you take to hallucinate) and should be carefully monitored and controlled by a doctor.
