I too had a medication that caused a severe manic episode of rage and irritability, I also had a medication that I didn't want to persist with becuase my appetite became so completely out of control and I could not fight it with healthy eating or exercise. I put on 14kg's in 7 weeks and said I could not continue taking it, not only for my physical health but for my self esteem. I am trialing a mood stabalizer on it's own now and have had the antipsychotics taken out of the equation for the time being, but this route has not been helping me at all so far, I am currently having a depressive epidsode and life is very hard.
This medication ride is tough 😞
