I have been waiting since the 19th November but my GP has said that I should have Latuda by the end of the week. I am going to start next week because my brother may be coming down to see me this weekend, and I don't want to be dealing with any side effects whilst he is with me.
Its taken a long time for me to get some new medication, I see my PDOC every 3 months so I had to wait that time before I could be seen and I have been unwell most of this year. In and out of mania and depression, I'm honestly not sure which is worse. I guess the mania is worse as it could get you into a fight. Depression just eats your soul away. The Lithium isn't working as well as it once did for the mania which terrifies me as once when I was in a psychiatric hospital a manic patient told me she has been on Lithium for 20 years and it just stopped working for her. I guess no drug is perfect forever.
I just wish I had some patience although don't let God know that. Last time I prayed for patience I ended up stuck on a bad housing situation for 4 years.
Heck i learnt a lot but its not something I want to repeat.
