In reply to Restless and sad. What to do?, posted by phidippus on October 8, 2017, at 19:56:39
hi. i don't understand invega dosing, but lithium+ a tranquilizer can sometimes lead to more problems (apathy, concentration difficulties, eps, akathisia, higher rates of TD, etc.) than taking either 1 alone. of course, the combination seems to be fairly common in bipolar I, so...maybe a different tranquilizer? my 1st thought would be abilify or one of the newer D2 partial agonists, in part because that would probably reduce the risk of significant prolactin elevation.
celexa helped me considerably w/ agitation, restlessness, and depression, combined w/ abilify. maybe that or lexapro?
hope things get better for you.
