Glad you have a supportive T and pdoc. The healthcare system is letting you down by not allowing you to stay on a med that helps. I take Saphris and it really helps. Only been on it two weeks but in the midst of a bad mixed episode I haven't had to deal with psychosis which is a gift.

I really hope you and your treatment team can find a solution so you don't have to suffer so much.
