Looking into switching meds maybe

I’ve tried abilify, risperidone, and zyprexa. Zyprexa is the one I’m currently on. It works ok, but it does give me some side effects, like my vision is sometimes “laggy”, can’t focus eyes, stress (which is mostly fixed with taking omega 3). I’m curious if there’s a drug out there that would work better for me. Also, with zyprexa I find it hard to stay present.

It seems kind of daunting to switch drug… I’m a bit worried of potential unpleasant side effects. But I feel maybe like it’s something I have to do. I have to take the chance… then I can always fall back on zyprexa if I can’t find anything better.

Invega Sustenna and Seroquel are good meds. I take Invega Sustenna and I used to take Seroquel but I wanted to go on injections because I forget to take my meds sometimes
