The problem they’re attempting to solve as I understand it, is an over abundance of dopamine in some parts of the brain. So it wouldn’t surprise me that a break would happen after those paths open back up and a build up occurs.
Will I become delusional if I quit clozapine?
Well, the pdoc has given it to you for a reason… which is most likely psychosis… quitting will cause it.

Your call…
delusions are not precipitated by real life events. Schizophrenia is a thought disorder, where you make something out of nothing, in a grand scale.
does this describe you?
I don’t have sz
Neither do I but coming off them backfired, but its up to you what you do, it doesn’t effect me but it will cause you more harm than good. you mgiht need a higher dose than before if you really do become psychotic again.
no, I didn’t mean to say I’m a doctor or anything, but I am concerned that many young one never get a diagnosis.
What do you mean exactly?
well, what I’ve heard on NPR is many youths have certain either suicide ideation or symptom pre-cusor to what might be coming later. They don’t know what to do with them.
Going to sleep soon
