Some people seem to benefit greatly from taking APs in this way. Personally, the APs that I've tried haven't helped my anxity ........but they did cause severe side effects.

Well, the atypicals didn't help except for Zyprexa so I don't know why he thought a typical one would. I don't know why he thinks anything. One day I will learn to ask during my appointment, "why are you recommending Navane specifically?"Thanks for the info. I still want to be that happy Japanese guy coming out of my box with a big flower in my hands.
