I'm so sorry to hear that you went through that, Newtus. You're on multiple antipsychotics now? That's...really weird to hear, since I just read that multiple antipsychotics haven't really been shown to be more effective than one, except of course the side effects add up. I'd want the pdoc to pick ONE instead. I'm so sorry, it's really hard to hear that kind of stuff, and I think that most doctors try too hard to convince us that we're 'omg super sick' instead of talking about the possible models for recovery or whatever, no matter what's wrong. I don't think the label and such is really -that- important as opposed to problem solving what to do to lead a happier life.

Labels and listing my symptoms is helpful to me, but that doesn't mean it's helpful to everything. I imagine it can feel very demeaning. :<
