Lithium usually has a calming effect. The fact that it can help with mood problems may also be why it helps with drinking issues. Some people drink alcohol as a means to self-medicate.
I take Lithium Orotate for bipolar disorder. I don't have a drinking problem, but I still find this topic interesting. Lithium is really helpful in reducing extreme moods and I can relate to many of these people's experiences about how lithium has helped them.
