Hi Jay,It's both anxiety and severe depression.
>I was on Latuda, and found the same. There is also another med for the anxiety Latuda causes..actually a few of them:

> -Remeron (mirtazipine) 15 mg at bedtime (very good for sleep and anxiety)
> =Cogentin (Benztropine) various doses 2x daily
> -Inderal (Propanolol) 10-20mgs 2 x daily (excellent..most popular..works well with Remeron)

> Can you ask your doctor about these? You can google akathisia, a anxiety provoking side effect of Latuda, and Seroquel, or any antipsychotic, to find out more. You should find those meds I mentioned above to remedy it.

I gained a lot of weight on Remeron unfortunately. Beta blockers make me feel really down especially combined with the Seroquel, I think. I can ask my Dr. about the Cogentin.Thank you for your suggestions!
