Yes I am. I ve now finally down on a medium dose of two antipsychotics only. And I sleep so wellI…
The only reason why I had the bad experiance with the 3 psychiatric meds was because that it never agreed on me and the long time span I was on it.
So allways remember that on med works wonders for one and for anorher the uppeset is the case.
But I m proud of my self but most of all so damn lucky that I could get rid on that drug rwo years ago.

I hope you continue to do well on your medium dose of 2 APs.
I’m tapering and going from 2 to 1 AP. Hope to be there in 3 months.

I hope that it goes gentle to get off of the Clozapine and that the one antipsychotic will do.

That’s great news. All the best.
I too am happy that I can do well with minimal or near zero medicines off of my AP.
Hope the trend is better and able to at least maintain if not going more better.

Melo maybe you are not the psychotic type. Or maybe your psychosis is that mild that you can function with out antipsychotics.

You are on a low dose of the Golden standard. When I took it I was on 600 mg Clozapine-Clozaril-Leponex.

Yes, I still hear and sometimes see things but it is mild compared to before, and know when it’s not real. It can be confusing at times though.

Most of my family members and extended relations and some of my friends seen the worst of me and still not able to get over it.
Maybe some of the members here also know how cranky I was maybe sometime back. But not sure if people like to remember that.
I was destitute, suicidal, constant trouble maker, could not keep any job, sucked talking to girls still do, spending money like water.
I was involuntarily taken to pdoc multiple times, hospitalized few times, been with multiple APs. Police still have suspicions on me due to some past behavior.
However, I flipped after a treatment on my teeth and I am free from almost all symptoms and now I just have to deal with work and family and not bothered about others much.
The story might be quite unbelievable even I do not believe it completely. But I am taking one day at a time and surprised eveytime I am able to overcome the past.
Hopefully I can do better in coming days and years as well. If police were to stop being suspicious that maybe the sign of some good achievement for that I need some good quality marketing… Lol.

Melo don t be sad over that you are guilty of nothing. I put the blame on your condition.
I m guilty in the exact same things. The last 20 years I often got so irretated because of the mix of meds I took. So I often wrote unpolite to the members here on this forum.
Yes my writings were totally unresponsible to members of this forum.
I make every Day new.
Let us both hope for better days.
