Hey all,
My girlfriend has just been prescribed Lithium. Which psychedelics/drugs can she take, and which ones are no-no's?
Snooping around on the internet has led me to the following conclusions -
PROBABLY FINE:
Weed/Hash oil - Seems to be fine. YMMV, but she loves the stuff, and hasn't had a negative interaction with it yet.
DMT - I've seen no negative interactions, seems to be fine, DMT seems to be one of the most physically safe drugs out there.
Ketamine/MXE/Misc Dissociatives - Again, I haven't read of any negative interactions. She really likes K, I assume this would be fine?
Stimulants - I don't think there's any problems here.
PROBABLY NOT FINE:
MDMA - Probably unsafe, unfortunately, but a low dose (100mg maximum) SHOULD be okay assuming she stays properly hydrated.
LSD - I don't think you're supposed to take LSD while on Lithium.
Shrooms - Same as LSD.
Alcohol - This is supposed to be a rather poor mix yes?
CURRENTLY UNSURE ABOUT:
Mescaline
Opiates
Benzos
Sleeping pills (like ambien)
Other mood stabilizers
If anyone has any first hand experience that would be great! I am also not interested in hearing "blah she's on psych meds so she shouldn't be tripping", I know for a fact that if it weren't for my mood stabilizers I wouldn't be able to take psychedelics, or live a happy life at all, so please no moral high horse stuff. I'm interested in the PHYSICAL safety behind these interactions - the mental is purely subjective, but of course experience and advice in both fields would be appreciated.
Thanks :D
EDIT: Oh, also information on RC interactions would also be extremely helpful! And yes, I'm aware that this is nearly completely uncharted territory...
