I’ve recently started a new atypical antipsychotic and it’s gradually reducing my intrusive thoughts. I’m on Risperdal right now. I was also previously on Zyprexa which helped tremendously with intrusive thoughts, but hurt my cognition and made me rapidly gain weight. I have also been on Latuda which did not help with intrusive thoughts (but it helps some people). Like others can attest, it’s a matter of trying meds until you find the right one for you, try not to get discouraged if the first 2-3 don’t work, but fingers-crossed it won’t take long for you to find the right med for you.
