Not sure about atypicals, it is my understanding that anti-psychotics can treat a whole range of things from symptoms of Borderline personality disorder to Bipolar to schizophrenia......as far as I know there are all sorts......I was on Olanzipine(zyprexa), Largactil(thorazine) and seroquel at different times......

Sorry babe, never read much in to the atypical nature of some. Like I said, some are better than others at treating specifics so I guess you can bring it up with your pdoc......

Good luck, babe....
