    i don't know much about it other than to make sure to keep yourself hydrated. like, it's super important, especially with the heat this time of year. someone i knew from inpatient was on lithium and they already drank more water than average, and they almost passed out during outside rec from being a little dehydrated and overheated. it was only like 85 degrees F and overcast at the time.

  3. sounds awesome, i live in florida and will likely be working a job that involves heavy physical labor outdoors for hours at a stretch. 8/

    think i'm gonna have to nope out on that, maybe he can prescribe me something else. but on the other hand, if it works...
