How can I frame it to my psychiatrist that I'm coming off my lithium?

That sounds just like me. I also think I’m God or Buddha (seriously), but maybe a little different than those themes but still interrelated, being communicated with by an alien race. Funny how these things overlap. I thought it was enlightenment. I gave it a shot off meds, I was on brexpiprazole, and had a good 6 months but I ended up diving into spirituality again and then maybe triggered myself to feel hyper-important again and ugh followed, all that.

Doesn’t sound weird, I get how the combos could work. With the right wording/honesty, you could get her to support a trial just without lithium maybe if that’s the memory culprit - but did you say you want to try off meds?
