Bipolar Disorde
"I&#039;m 21 years old, and have been diagnosed as major depressive and having generalized anxiety since I was 17. Since then I&#039;ve been on three different antidepressants from citalopram to Zoloft, and they all had mediocre effects on my depression. It wasn&#039;t until I saw a new psychiatrist and had a new diagnosis of bipolar l that I started to experience genuine relief. I attribute most of my recovery to Latuda. In the first weeks of taking this medicine I experienced terrible akathisia (the feeling of tickles or ants in your body) which kept me up at night, but after a few weeks I was told to take it with my trazadone (my sleeping pill) at night and the sensation went away. It was probably only a few weeks when I began to feel normal."
