Discuss your symptoms with your treating psychiatrist and get the medications revised if they do not help even after taking for a month or so. Many times it is difficult for the psychiatrist to get all the symptoms under control in one go, so give him/ her time and for most the symptoms subside over a period of time.

People with drug-induced bipolar disorder have similar mood shifts and symptoms as people with bipolar disorder. The difference between the two is that people with drug-induced bipolar disorder tend to have their symptoms go away after 1 month of stopping drug use.

Dear lybrate-user, please discuss your problem with your treating psychiatrist. There could be many reasons for refusing sex. Your wife might be in depression where she does not enjoy sex. Citapure may cause some side effect that she doesn't like sex. She may have other social reasons for refusing. She may be even afraid of pregnancy since she is on lithosun that might sometimes harm her child in the womb.
