I already take Lamotrigine as a mood stabilizer. I've been on that for 15 yrs. I also take levothyroxine, atorvastatin, and alprazolam. I've been on just about every antidepressant. Dr said is not a surprise I have bipolar and not mdd. They should have ruled that when I didn't respond to anti depressant.
I just started 20 mg of Latuda last month because I can't get out of bed or motivated. I can not stop eating though. I take it at dinner time with 350 cal like it says. I don't get full. It has to be the Latuda, but I like the way I am on it. I make decisions and am able to be more assertive. Does anyone else have this problem with the food?
I'm also going to be put on a low dose of add meds. I was on a low dose of Strattera. My world was finally making sense and I could accomplish daily tasks when I had motivation. It made me really sleepy though. I did take it at night, but the next day I would still feel sluggish. I just thought... that was also when I was taking trazodone, so maybe those don't mix well.
Anyways, my dr after that put me on Ritalin 5mg and I did not like that. I took it 3 days and was yelling at my kids, I became a monster.
Anyways needing some more help. Would like to try add meds again. My Dr said adderal but I was thinking vyvanse. Don't know? Any help or experiences greatly appreciated.
Hope you're having a good day, truly!! 😊🤗
