Good luck!!!
I was fed up with feeling brain dead and didn't expect withdrawals. The Latuda wasn't working for my depression anyway.

I just took 40mg of Latuda and may try staying on that dose for a week or so and go down slower. I just can't function like this with the withdrawals. It is horrible.
