Blue,

If you don't have a psychotic disorder then stopping Rexulti or another AP is the right thing to do but if you do then you will see a return of psychotic symptoms you have written about many times on PC.

Even though I had had many psychotic episodes it was impossible to convince me at times that I needed to be on an antipsychotic. I thought, instead, I had a neurological disorder, a type of headache that responds specifically to Indomethacin. I really wanted to believe i had anything other than a psychotic disorder.

Unfortunately reality caught up with me. i agree with you about long term side effects of AP's, it's important not to take them unless you really need them and then it should be at the lowest effective dose. That's why I"m on 1 mg of Rexulti rather than 4 mg.

Maybe you have been overmedicated and you also do have a psychotic disorder (or not). Both things can be true.
