Experience trying over the counter lithium oronate 5mg daily?

It looks like a number of folks are taking lithium orotate or have a partner who takes it. Question: has anyone seen any benefit from taking it? And if so, how long did it take to show up, and is it significant?

We have been slowly increasing the dose from 1 mg to just now 4mg.
No dramatic signals- but not sure there will be any? If it only slows progression, and cannot reverse it, how do you measure that on a patient level? In a big study where you have controls taking placebo and differing dosages, you would be able see differences.
Since there seems no downside at these low doses, we are taking it based on primarily the Harvard study and the earlier Danish research. Hoping for the upside!
