Bipolar Disorde
"I have been battling bipolar the majority of my life. At one point I was on 8 different medications: lamictal, depakote, seroquel, elavil, neurontin, propranolol, a couple I can&#039;t think of.  My most recent doctor got me down to 3, the main one being Lithium. I began Latuda on 20mg for a week and now I&#039;m on my 4th day at 40mg. Today is my second day with adverse side effects...extreme nausea, loss of appetite and diarrhea.  I trust this will pass as it did the first few weeks with lithium.  I have to say that I&#039;m loving the med otherwise. I&#039;m quicker to smile and slower to anger...I nearly feel in control.  Make sure you take with food and expect to be less than 100% for a couple of weeks."
