O crap. That means I should be on APs'.
Anyhow, people always use the fact that people often go psychotic after coming of their meds as proof that they need their meds. Its called dopamine supersensitivity psychosis.
Is becoming depressed after stopping an antidepressant proof that you need an antidperessant ? No.
If you've been on an AP long enough, you almost need one for the rest of your life.My mother (never psychotic) became floridly psychotic when they took mellaril off the market.
Some of these drugs introduce problem that were never there to begin with. It confounds everything.
