Hi, Ann,
Thanks for your input! My son was living in the Dallas area, but is now in
the process of moving to Tucson, Arizona, so no, I never spoke to anyone. He is
28, married, with 2 kids. His paternal grandmother also was Bipolar, wonder if
it is hereditary?

That's a tough one for a mother to bear. I have a son with a similar
problem.. Just want to say that Lithium is
a natural substance found within the human body. I'm not a psychiatrist
but do have a degree in Psychology
and from what I learned about body chemical imbalances there probably won't
be a perfect natural substance
to fix this problem. Lots of things in the alternate medical world may be
helpful but not a complete fix.
Have you talked to his psychiatrist/doctor and gained an understanding of
the uses of Lithium? Lots on the
internet on the subject of Lithium. Google or PubMed searching can broaden
your understanding of Bipolar
condition and also Lithium which is one of the ways to treat.
My very best wishes
