I understand what you're saying, and how difficult it is to endure all of this while we try different things and hope that this particular drug combo will be the magical one... I have felt like I was on the edge of a cliff with my sanity. It's terrifying.

I've come to accept that I may lose things because of my issues this go round, and I have... My job, my independence. I've come to accept that it's going to be a while before I feel better... And it's honestly been over a year since I last felt like myself... And since everything has been changing so regularly, I'm very appreciative of every day where I happen to feel semi ok. And that's what keeps me going. I hope you can find a way to have some peace, too.

I'm interested in Latuda because I'm not liking my abilify. Can you keep me updated how it works for you? I'd love to know.
I'm feel like I'm in a conundrum with the Latuda. If it works then it will be so expensive how will I afford it?? It's like $400 a month with discounts. I do hope it works, and if it does I will find a way to afford it I guess. I'm scared of being unable to get it together and cope with life. I've started putting things into place to support myself, but nothing happens quickly and I'm truly not sure how I'll get through each day with the ups and downs I've been experiencing. I've felt this messed up only twice before and neither one of those times ended well.

It's good to come on here because people can relate and give advice that is meaningful and helpful.
