Did you stop taking them with full approval of your psychiatrist or just 'on your own'? Tapering or just 'cold turkey'? What was the longest time you were med-free?

I've never noticed any permanent mental side effects from neuroleptics. Most drugs caused postural hypotension, increased apetite and somnolence. One drug gave me dental problems. Now, I have no molars in my left jaw.
Which one gave you dental problems?
