Well I’ll be damned!
Wow! Now that’s something!
I have a neutral attitude towards my Clopixol ap med. I see it as being similar to my blood pressure med, it’s just there and there’s no need to have any emotion towards it. I don’t feel any stigma towards it what so ever.
Well, I’ve found another benefit from my Geodon and Seroquel.

So interesting, thanks for the articles!
Oh and, COvid still sucks lol.
