I am on week 6ish of being on 40mg of Latuda. I was previously on Abilify. I used to be constantly hungry, constantly craving food and what seemed like a bottomless pit when eating a meal.

Since switching over to Latuda, I actually feel real fullness. I don’t think about food obsessively like I did on Abilify. I’m down 7 pounds since starting! I am so glad I made the change.

The medication isn’t perfect (they all have their side effects). I tend to get a bit of an ”impending doom” feeling right after I take the dose in the evening, but it is tolerable and less intense than it was when I first started. As someone who has failed a lot of antipsychotics, I’m doing so well on this medication!
