Have you ever researched how they used to treat schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder prior to the creation of APs? I am not sure of the methods they used, but I do know the rates of recovery were higher. Most patients were able to rehabilitate and enter back into their daily lives after a period of time.

I wonder if any of those treatment options are still available for people who do not want to take APs. I think it is completely fair to refuse the meds as long as you can substitute them with something equally or more effective.
