Well, no, not really. Latuda and geodon both gave me horrible akathisia. Zyprexa and risperdal seems to be the only thing that really helps when I get that angry/irritable.
I know how u feel. I've lost 20 of the lbs I gained from risperdal and seroquel.
Once I'm feeling pretty stable I think I'm gonna give abilify a try. I was on an AD when I got that severe akathisia on latuda and geodon. My pdoc said that increases the chance of getting that severe akathisia.
I don't want to increase the dose of lorazepam I'm on. For me, I want to find a more permanent way of handling it. It's hard..
So, no risperdal and zyprexa seem to be what works...sucks.
