But I've noticed the past few days I've been sweating a little bit more than usual. Is this normal on Lithium?

Have the side effects eased up Cathy? I've noticed that usually, after a while, the side effects will lessen...so are you still sweating? LOL

Not sweating nearly as much, thanks for asking :-) though yesterday I had a weird thing, I normally take my meds at 9pm sharp but I was hanging out at a friends and didn't get home until midnight, but after ten-ish I started getting shakes, seemed a bit early for withdrawal symptoms?

no, not really. your body gets on a schedule and once the meds start wearing off you can start to get the shakes. At least I do anyways...

I had the shakes the whole time I was on lithium, so I really don't know about the withdrawal shakes, but I do know that with my other meds, a few hours late on a dose can mess me up.
