I know what you mean about the zombie effect, it's not fun. I have to drink some caffeine to snap out of it to make it to work. My pdoc doesn't like me consuming the caffeine but I've got to survive and make it to work.
What was your reason for trying the Latuda when you said the lamictal and lexapro was doing pretty good?
I wish you the best and hope you find the right combo to make you feel better.

Yea mine hates it if I have caffeine too.
I was feeling depressed and I hadn't in a while so my dr said he the depression starts to increase let's make an adjustment first to catch it and gave me latuda. I wish I just kept my mouth shut. It wasn't even this bad. I have very slowly felt better than I did but def not great. I'm so annoyed at myself for starting this when I could have just rode out the depression quicker than now. I have a big vacation planned in abt three weeks and I'm terrified I won't feel better by then. This is ******** these meds just making things worse. Ugh. Thanks for the words.
