Roll Call 194

Anyone here have experience with Latuda for psychosis? My psychiatrist was talking about it a while ago and I think I might try it since I'm on two antipsychotics right now.

I have not taken it myself, but I know people who have found it helpful.

Yeah, I was thinking about wanting to change things, but actually, I probably shouldn't change anything...

I’ve been on Latuda for about five years now and aside from when I was getting used to the dosage I’ve been psychosis free.

Thx for sharing, I might bring it up w/ my doctor...

That's great. I don't know if the gym near me is open today. But I'd like to do some form of exercise.

Drew a Pokémon. It’s nowhere near how I used to draw because it’s been years without any practice but I’m happy with it and will keep practicing

Mmm mozzarella sticks for dinner

Cleaning…I do hate cleaning but occasionally you have to….

I cleaned a bit today. My room looks a lot better (it was atrocious).

I applied to two jobs today cause this freelancing thing is not going too well...

I put everything in the same place... If I throw something into the garbage and miss, I get up, pick it up and do it myself..

I've been doing so much work (Shower, hygiene, tasks, chores, job, organizing) - And I did this same thing when I was 15-16... Then psychosis happened. I couldn't bare the constant activity anymore.. of doing things..

But right now, I'll try again

Because when I was 16, I slept a few hours a night for a year, stressed, abused and then all of a sudden, I broke down. I couldn't get out of bed.. I told my mom "I don't want to go to work - I don't care about life"..

And I brush my teeth every day, take care of myself.. It ended up where me, I was outside on a bench in the psych ward - With my dad, cutting my toe/finger nails because I was so mentally handicapped.

I just found a place on reddit called writing prompts (actually I've known about it a while). Inspired me to get started writing some fiction again.

What if everyone had psychosis?

Wait a second... hmm...

I... Well I was going to craft an elaborate response to this but I seriously don't know what the answer is...

Same lol..

Edit: I don't mean to scare you guys with my ideas - They are only fun thoughts.. We are real, we cry, we love.. We die. Etc.. It's a beautiful life...

But the world is a little off lately, I'd say. Cuz of algorithms, censorship, propaganda, division.. But it ok

Psychotic experiences are quite common even among people who don't have a mental health condition

"Increase in serotonergic tone is thought to explain olanzapine's antidepressant and anxiolytic qualities and enhanced dopamine activity in the frontal cortex."

I knew it.. I damned knew it

"The reason is Lybalvi is Olanzapine + Opiod Antagonist that shuts down the good feelings you get from eating. This effectively stops the binge eating you experience on Olanzapine."

Plans for today:

• Walk to the store to get a few things I need
• Exercise
• Clean
• Sit outside for awhile
• Draw
• Read/look through my new London travel guidebook
• Watch some episodes of Yugioh

You're good. I wasn't scared by it.

And yeah, the world is really "off" lately. Ha.

Got a coffee energy drink I'm trying out. I thought it was just coffee when I bought it but it's also an energy drink. So hopefully I don't have a panic attack. I have avoided energy drinks for a very long time because of panic disorder

I'm hoping it gives me energy and helps my headache go away and not give me a panic attack

I actually got juice that was an energy drink once by accident….had no idea it even existed…

Yeah I am on Latuda, Rexulti, and Lybalvi. But I want to change from Lybalvi back to Olanzapine.
