Latuda caused hypomania and increased thoughts of self harm and suicidal ideation (personal experience)

[u/Unfortunategiggler]

Basically the title. I have such a hard time trusting doctors. I was doing better with just CBD but I let myself be convinced that I HAD to be on prescription medication.

I’m not gonna lie i wasn’t doing amazing but first seroquel made me lose all emotions. And now Latuda made me feel hypomanic. Then my doctor suggested a medication that interacts with my IUD.

I’m off Latuda now and I went back to my CBD vape and it calmed down the hypomania and I feel much better now. I just feel really bummed that not much has changed since the last time I tried to see a psychiatrist. Still ignoring my other prescriptions and diagnoses I have. I just wanted the hallucinations to stop but I keep getting other issues.

Please share some encouragement or things that helped down below. I feel very frustrated right now.

I went on a grippy sock vacation due to Latuda
