So I agreed to "try it" I was only on it for 2- 3 months but Zero weight gain I did not want to eat my sofa nor doze off while standing up .. I was not snowed under I had no problems speaking or finding the right words like many AP's cause.. It did what it was suppost to do.

Personally I refuse to take an AP daily anymore there are too many studies out there about long term use of Ap's and its not pretty . ..If I "need" one I will take it for a very short amount of time. My Pdoc respects my wishes and agrees with me and my treatment plan.
Thanks. Well I was off any ap for about 3 months. I've went into a bad psychosis 3 yrs ago. When I'm off the antipsychotics I deal with really bad paranoia, depression, feeling unsafe and scared. For right now I need an ap.
