Great show. I did think it was ridiculous at the beginning when they just stuck her on clozapine. Since she was getting it on the sly there was no one to even take regular testing-- unlikely her sister would give her something so potentially dangerous.(And really, where would the sister get it? It's a drug they closely monitor.) Also they had given no reason to think Carrie was intractably psychotic. And if nothing else Carrie would likely have been fat too; clozapine is well known for causing great weight gain. I always wonder what psychiatric professionals they have to supervise these things. (Gee, can you tell it bugged me?)

But they did change her to lithium later on, which made a lot more sense.
