I need to find a new medication; going to tell my psychiatrist I’m pretty sure I have schizoaffective instead of bipolar or schizophrenia but both; somewhere on the spectrum. Someone thought to ask about Invega. I’m researching medications to ask about, and since October I went from mania to more so depression. But not that severe to need an anti depressant and anti depression medication makes me worse. So far I think vraylar and invega I may ask about. I’m on 10MGS Abilify and it’s not effective anymore. In fact it may be making me worse.
Clozapine is a good drug. You have to get a blood test once a month for that one though

I have schizoaffective and am on clozapine and Invega shot, and am feeling good. I know that Invega is FDA approved to treat schizoaffective.

I think I have that with the least mood symptoms possible.
Rexulti is awesome for me.
Antidepressants often do terrible things to me.

I would ask for vraylar and latuda before invega.

Watch Dallas Buyers’ Club on Netflix. (Not suitable for kids though). I don’t like the FDA. It’s all about making money and not helping people.

Good idea! I will try that first, and then maybe vraylar.
