Is anyone on Latuda? I was put on it about a year ago and up to the top dose of 120 mg to manage bipolar depression. I've been very anxious with all that is going on and my Doctor increased my Latuda to 140 MG. I didn't think it worked for anxiety? Am I mistaken? I feel like she doesn't listen to me. Does anyone else get anxiety relief from APS?

My husband takes Latuda, but not for anxiety. Maybe your doc thought you were a bit depressed?

I take latuda and while it kinda seems to help a little bit with the depression, my anxiety and restlessness have gotten a lot worse. I also had a weird little manic episode that only lasted a night but I’m not sure if that’s from the latuda or something else- sending hugs though 🤗

Latuda - I've tried it twice. It has never done anything at all to help alleviate anxiety. After many, many tries I have finally found a medication that is helping my severe anxiety. It is called trilafon.
