I have been on Latuda for about 1.5years. My dose was titrated up to 60mg for a while but I was blunted and it was brought down to 40mg which helped. It got rid of my anxiety completely which was awesome. I don’t know if it did anything else for my mood but my pdoc thinks it was helping with depression. Unfortunately after more than a year on it I developed Akesthesia and have tapered down to 20mg. So far, so good. I am feeling all emotions more acutely (I think normally) and I have some anxiety but manageable. Latuda made me sleepy when I first started it but that side effect went away in about a week. I’ve gained about 8lbs on it and am struggling to get those off. At only 5’2” 8lbs actually makes a substantial difference in how my body feels.
