I wonder then if antipsychotics which promote domapinergic activity at low doses, would also cause brain shrinkage?
And what can one do to attenuate the effect? For example, would activities that normally promote good brain health, like reading, socialising, playing a musical instrument, etc., reduce the brain shrinkage?
