    After starting Latuda, my manic episodes have lessened. I don’t go crazy and get mean like I used to. Best thing they could have given me. And didn’t have any effect on my weight. Only thing is, taking it with food is hard since I’m not always home to do so.

    This med did not help me at all. I actually became more depressed. So lethargic and unmotivated. Lost any interest to do any of my favorite activities. Could not eat, so I was basically sick when I took the med.

    Stay away. EXTREME paranoia, distorted mood, saying and doing things I wouldn’t normally, I felt insane for a month it completely ruined my relationship with my partner of 10 years, friends and certain family members.
