8 days ago I was put on 40mg of Latuda 2 x a day. At first i was pleased as I noticed no side effects. It was to treat mixed depression. Since going on it I have been increasingly agitated, irritable, super-inpatient, think i am smarter than everyone and have super powers, very suicidal and low. It got so serious i was in a locked ward in a state hospital last night and am now in a private hospital I usually go to. My mood is intense to say the least - hell on earth. It has taken all my strength just to stay alive. I don't recall feeling this bad.

Thing is my pdoc thinks it may be the Latuda and so does my T but my pdoc want me to wait two more days to make sure its the Latuda. I want to stop it now but trust my pdoc.

Anyway has anyone had this kind of experience with Latuda. I was depressed and agitated but this is much worse and even psychotic at times. I thought it was a benign drug that at worst didn't work but a bit of research showed this is not the case. This was my last hope drug, now I feel left without hope for recovery.
