in december 2012 i was involintarily hospitalized and my place of living called the psychiatrist and told him i could not live there if i wasnt on RISPERDAL, the doc said he was going to ween me off RISPERDAL but didnt, he added LATUDA. Within a week of beeing discharged after agreeing to take both meds, it made my voices worse, and caused a severe neck twitch which turned into a locked up neck, i can only look right. if itry to lok left its like someone is holding my head so i cannot look left. Have you got a tardiv disorder from mixed meds?

How long have you suffered with this? I take Latuda as well, but haven't experienced any tardiv disorder. I've been on it for over a year. You think it was the mixed medications that caused it?

Hello, insilence. Does the psychiatrist know about what you experiencing. Adjustments are indicated. You may want to consider seeing a different psychiatrist.

I wish you well.

the psychiatrist was while i was in the ward, im currently on olanzapine, ive dealt with the neck injury for two years. olanzapine cleared up the bad voices,, but i hear them discussing how to get me sometimes, which makes me think im being attacked by a intentional being, human or otherwise. yesterday they were trying to sacrifice me to an evil being

You may need to go back inpatient until your placed on medication that is helping you and taking away the psychosis.Talk to your Pdoc as soon as possible .

Good luck

Sounds like dystonia to me. I know very little about it, just saw it on TV and they injected the guy with botox (he had a similar neck spasm) and he got better.

Wow sounds like they did a crap job of changing up the meds...are you seeing any psychiatrist or therapist currently? Also it might be a good idea to see if anything could be done about the neck injury, maybe there is a treatment to fix that or at least improve it some, but you'd probably be better off seeing a regular doctor than psychiatrist for that but seems like it would be worth addressing.
