I have 25mg tablets also for PRN agitation, 1-2 PRN, I have not had to use in quite awhile now but there was a stretch when I did quite often. It was helpful.
Do you take a benzo? A low dose PRN might be helpful?
When I was taking the 25-50 PRN, it was in the mornings. Would feel like I was going to explode into a million pieces and my brain would not shut up. It helped calm that down.

Latuda did not help me. Haven’t tried Geoden.
Thanks. I have thought of the Haldol but it did seem to help a bit. Stopped taking it recently and had no impact. Still going crazy. I love your simile about being exploded into a million pieces. It is like that. I am hoping the low dose Seroquel will relieve my agitation and not gain weight. Boy does it make you crave sugar and fats though!!
