Except that zfleebin's experience is not at all typical. Lithium is not listed as having the side effect of flattening your emotions. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that his dosage was wrong - you have to work dilligently for a while at first to get the dosage just right or it has too much of an effect- sounds to me like that's what happened.
The most common side effects for lithium are blurred vision, dry mouth, small hand tremors, frequent urination, and mild nausea.
Long term side effects involve weight gain and hypothyroidism, but that's fairly rare.
