I am, despite 80 mg of latuda every day, soooo irritable! I hate this part of bpd. Hate it hate it hate. It.
And it sucks even more cause the family has gathered this weekend, and i would like to be social and jovial, but i just can't. I think i need a med adjustment. |

Is mania always a symptom for BP or can it come in the form of irritability?

How long have you been on Latuda? Or a dosage change? I know it made me extremely irritable for awhile when I started taking it. It was terrible. Hope things settle down for you soon.

I upped dosage maybe a week or week and half or so ago. I considered the possibility that this could pass but i want it gone NOW.
I realized im irritated by my irritability. Lol |

I hope it gets better soon. I know from experience how bad irritability can make you feel.

Thanks guys, and I'm actually having a much better day today. I just got done having a swim at the rec, and am getting laundry done right now.
Yesterday, I just wanted to hole up away from everyone in my room. I wonder if all the social stimuli agitated it, and it's not the meds. It's probably a combo of both. |

How often do you go for a swim? That sounds like a good idea. I have a rec center just down the street from me. I'm glad you're feeling better today!

 Your not alone. I have a general, "I hate people" attitude hidden behind smiling helpfulness. Imagine that day when everyone is around, and think up activities for yourself (chores, cooking, etc) and keep busy, activity helps use up the energy anger creates. Also, it helps you to have your face hidden by looking at the task so people can't see the disdain in your eyes. It is so hard to fake interest when rage is looming. Good luck to you, and to us all.
