I’m currently eating 800-1200 calories a day. Plus exercise as much as I can with pain conditions. But that exercise is causing more joint pain and damage.

I refuse to buy new bigger clothes. All this is doing is flaring up my urge to just stop eating, anorexic as it’s best. Last time about 4 years there was many talks from T , Pdoc and GP of needing a feeding tube. So I’d like to not have a repeat.

So I am quitting Latuda. Screw Big Pharma making life even worse for those of us psych issues.... deal with unhealthy weight gain. Like really ????

I’m done
Well...****...I’m sorry! That sucks. Let me know how it goes.
