My Pdoc and I have talked about it at length last year. I had basically taken every psych med. only one I had not tried was Geodon and I tried that while in Florida. No way could I tolerate it.. and going off it was horrible.

If Latuda stops working or I have side effects that I can’t or won’t tolerate I would really consider ECT.

I saw many people over the years IP and they choose ECT , I could literally see a difference after a treatment or 2..

Only complaints that anyone mentioned was memory that day prior to treatment they could not recall and all complained of a pretty significant headache, which they were quickly treated, most would be going to dinner that day.

ECT of today is nothing like ECT even 5 years ago.

I hope you find some relief, you are a wonderful person and deserve to enjoy life more.
