"i have been severely suicidal for 15 years with no attempts in that time. just could not escape the repetitive desire to escape my bad depression. started taking latuda 4 months ago 80mg and suicidal thoughts have diminished greatly. problem sleeping now and some twitching doc put me up to 120mg and sleeping only 3 hours a night usually. i am 250 pounds and was 290 before bipolar medicine. food cravings have pretty much ceased. amazing thing is even with little sleep i am not having nearly as many haywire thoughts from my schizophrenia as i usually do without much sleep. actually want to try now. i am back down to 80 mg and think i am going to halve that to 40mg in a week to get sleep back under control. xanax and unisom are helping for sleep now"
