i know where you're coming from. for me, reducing the # of drugs in the cocktail helped. Reducing the Abilfy dosage helped a whole lot, too. For me, a form of alternative health--Orthomolecular--seems to help me get more mileage out of fewer drugs @ lower doses.
sorry about this. I mean that, because...like I said, I have a good idea of where you're coming from. I find that the tranquilizers/antipsychotics are the absolute -worst- offenders, when it comes to causing apathy, fatigue, lethargy, etc. Maybe your shrink could do a slow, gradual dosage reduction and see if that helps? Just...if you reduce the tranq...try to do it very, very slowly. Its rapid tapers that cause hell on earth.
hope this helps. :-)
