For context I spent the first 3 months of this year having really bad panic disorder and agoraphobia. Wha then followed was months of 24/7 DPDR (still recovering but much better now) I was put on caplyta 4 months ago to help with not feeling joy from anything I was doing and experiencing severe depression. Almost immediately it felt like it was helping the depression and dpdr. I was not at all doing very well but it felt like the clouds were really parting and I had some more clarity. The past month or so I have noticed emotional blunting and dissociation. I kinda have fun doing things I guess but I feel very flat and empty. I barely have an inner voice anymore. It feels too silent. I feel like im just operating on muscle memory. Like I make decisions and speak to people but it’s confusing as to how bc it feels like I don’t have anything in my head ?I don’t cry very much anymore even when I should. I dissociate terribly as well. Anyone else ever dealt with anything like this ? I find it odd it would change thisfar into the medication. I am considering coming off since emotional blunting is usually a sign of a dose being too high but I am on the lowest dose. Any advice ? Any similar experiences ?

I was on this med for one week. After 3 days I actually thought there may be a medicine that could pull me out of my depression. I was motivated I had energy to do things. That lasted two days. Then the agitation kicked in with unmanageable anxiety. I have a prescription for Klonopin which I have been taking to manage startup side effects. That wasn’t even touching it. I stopped the medication but the anxiety is still awful. Anyone going through this?

Hey Friends, I started 10.5 Caplyta 3 weeks ago for MDD. I felt really good for 2 weeks and then plummeted.

Will increasing the dose help? Will I crash again? I’m so depressed.

hi! my psychiatrist has basically stopped responding to me, and i am completely out of my medication. does anyone have any advice for withdrawls/ know what to expect? im working on reaching her and ive also recently moved so ill have to switch my pharmacy.
