I am not trying to be mean by saying this and I don't think anyone's intentions are bad I just mean that for crying out loud of someone says their legs is broken and they are taking painkillers you wouldnt expect them to walk because their leg is still broken and probably still very painful even still with the painkillers.
Well, you're still in very early times so far. I agree it feels lousy for awhile (early days on meds - it took at least 3 months for me, on first one ap, and then for the one they switched me to in April).

It's a waiting game, i guess. I don't expect you to feel ok this early in the meds. It's only been 7 weeks for you, so far?

Olanzapine started working for me pretty early on but I gained so much weight on it, they switched me to Risperdal. I went for about 10 years between trying some ap's and then actually staying on them. So I know what it's like to not want to take meds. I urge you to keep taking them, but no one can make you. We all just want to see you getting better. We feel so helpless. We almost all agree (here on pc) you'll be a lot better on meds. But no one can make you, but it just feels so unnecessary for you to keep suffering. [emoji813]
