What is Lithium?
Lithium affects the flow of sodium through nerve and muscle cells in the body. Sodium affects excitation or mania.

Lithium is used to treat the manic episodes of manic depression. Manic symptoms include hyperactivity, rushed speech, poor judgment, reduced need for sleep, aggression, and anger. Lithium also helps to prevent or lessen the intensity of manic episodes.

Lithium may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.

Its a soft sliver-white element of the alkali metal group that is the lightest metal known and that is used especially in alloys and glass,in chemical synthesis,and in storage batteries(even pimps need to be smart)
its the third element in the periodic table...

Lithium is a metal, similar to sodium, that is very reactive. It is used in batteries because it is strongly electronegative. It has an atomic number of 3 (3 electrons and protons), and an atomic weight of ~ 7 (3 protons and 4 neutrons).
Lithium (Li) is an Alkali metal.

It reacts with water forming the Alkali, Lithium Hydroxide and Hydrogen gas.
2Li + 2H2O → 2LiOH(aq) + H2(g)

Li has an Atomic No. of 3
The nucleus contains 3 Protons and 4 Neutrons and has an Atomic mass of 7.
The 3 Electrons are in 2 Energy shells with 2 electrons in the 1st shell and 1 (the valence electron ) in the 2nd shell.
It's No.2 in Group 1 of the Periodic Table
Lithium is an element Li is it's tittle on the Periodic Table of Elements. It's atomic power is 3 and it is commonly used in batteries like laptops and handheld electronics which makes it a nicer way to power electronics batteries because there is not hassle and expense.
