I have only been on three anti psychotics and so far I haven't had a good experience with any of them.
Zyprexa; I gained 20 pounds in the matter of two weeks; and couldn't go five minutes without feeling hungry. It worked okay for the hypo feelings, but still felt massively depressed on it.
Seroquel: This is about the only anti psychotic I haven't hated. I'm having horrible indigestion on 200mg. The lower dosages I never had a problem with, 100mg totally killed my depression granted I did have a few hypo episodes on that dosage. I can also sleep with Seroquel as opposed to some other medications.
Latuda: I can't even say I liked this medication. It it by far the worst medication I have ever been on. It didn't do anything for my depression, if anything I felt more depressed. It could not put me to sleep. I was even on Ambien and I still couldn't sleep with this medication. The whole counting calories was a giant pain. I got like massive brain fog three hours after taking it. I also had horrible muscle spasms and aches on this medication.
I honestly have not had a good experience on any of the anti psychotics.
It is also helpful seeing other peoples experiences on the other anti psychotics.
