I have quite a long history of limited or short lasting effects from antidepressants. I tried Venlafaxine and it worked a treat but, possibly triggered by some stress, it stopped working after a couple of months.
I also know people for whom it has worked very well. Maybe the risperidone was acting as an adjunct to make Venlafaxine more effective.
I just looked up Latuda in wickipedia it seems to be in the same group as risperidone so hopefully it will have a similar effect, maybe with fewer side effects.
Here's hoping   |
Thank you, I hope so too. My mum is saying she reckons Latuda is making me feel suicidal and wants me to try a different anti-psychotic, but apart from that I like Latuda because it hardly has any side effects and it's helping a bit with paranoid thoughts. I'm feeling suicidal mainly because my mood is so low.
