I think he was trying to test whether I actually had schizoaffective or something. Which to me just sounded like playing with my emotions. I don't know. He always tends towards wanting to reduce meds. I don't like it much. He also got me out of a terrible depression though. I wonder if it's time for a new pdoc. I don't know.
I was once only on the Invega Sustenna injection and my treatment team was happy about that but I was freaking out about my heart very often.. So beta blocker.. And I wasn't sleeping at night.. So sleep med.. But also having dissociative panic attacks.. So benzo.. And also couldn't focus and sleeping too much.. So stimulant..

1. Antipsychotic
2. Beta blocker
3. Anti-anxiety
4. Sleep med
5. Stimulant

They are all needed. But that's all.
