I can’t take very many psych meds for one reason or another. My Pdoc put me on Caplyta today and I’m wondering who else here has taken it and what your side effects were. (Please try not to scare me too much!)

Apparently, I posted about this almost exactly a year ago in the bipolar treatments thread! Continue there or here. Either one is fine with me.

I tried it. It seemed to help the first few days especially as far as motivation to do things like housework. However, it quickly sent me into mania and into a hospitalization. Hopefully, it works better for you.

Sorry to hear that but welcome back! I haven’t seen you around in a long time.

It’s been okay. I’ve mostly been very sedated and sleeping a lot.

Thanks! I've been a bit of a lurker. Not much to say lately.
