In July 14, I started seeing a psychologist for depression and was diagnosed with Major depression, generalized and social anxiety disorder. I was given a regiment that was tuned up a couple times and the end result was 100 mg Zoloft, 300 mg Wellbutrin and .5 mg xanax as needed. I felt good, not happy but not depressed and more functional than I was. This lasted from end of October till beginning of January. I then started feeling very depressed, teary and did not want get out of bed unless I had work. My anxiety also skyrocketed again and felt it almost everyday. I informed my psychologist and she thought I may be bipolar. On the next session she had me take a bipolar test which I "aced." She said I scored biploar 1 and she said im borderline bipolar 2. After which I was able to see my PCP who lowered Wellbutrin to 150 and replaced xanax with .5 klonopin. I then was recommended to psychiatrist who started me on 10 mg Latuda to up to 20 mg.
I have been on it for a week, I felt only anxiety once this week. I still felt depressed most of the week, but not as bad and been somewhat functional.

Has anyone had any experience with Latuda or with share any similar experience. Thanks
