I’ll keep it short- I’ve been on Lithium for over 2 years as it’s the only medication that can actually make a dent in my suicidal tendencies. My psychiatrist increased my dose last year and it caused some thyroid issues that I caught because I raised concerns about hormonal acne to my gynecologist. 

My psych then lowered my dosage and retired, one thing led to another and I ended up in the psych ward months later due to my very first mixed episode (I was discharged this past Tuesday). They raised it again. Acne showed up today. My thyroid issues were cleared, but the acne persists. Anyone else have this issue??? How do you deal with it? Regular skincare routine doesn’t help.
