"i was recently diagnosed bipolar type 2 with mostly depression episodes. i was before on citalopram for 6 months after burning out in april. latuda has really helps with the mood swings, i&#039;m much more happy, social and productive. it&#039;s effect is almost instant. i&#039;m on 10mg and will up to 20mg soon. the only negative effect i&#039;ve experienced with latuda is brain fog. it&#039;s been challenging for me as i am a university student. with citalopram i would get straight as, study long periods and memorize 200 pages in 2 days. with latuda, i have trouble memorizing a paragraph. i also tend to forget stuff. psychiatrist says it will get better with time. even tho i enjoyed citalopram, i had terrible side effects. with latuda, none. i finally feel normal."
