I've been on clozapine for 3.75 years. It is by far the most useful med I've ever taken. My review of it is Clozaril

It's not nearly as bad as I feared when I went on it; the worst side effects are manageable.

I hope you can get away without needing it but if you do it's really not that bad, especially once you are adjusted.d
