Write back and let me know how it goes, I care- judy Dear Judy, I am a bit surprised by your feelings in this matter. I truly don't know you well enough, but it doesn't sound like you to take such a position. I think we can both agree that it is counterproductive to pigeon-hole drugs and confine their usage to the first label that man has placed on them. An antipsychotic is simply a compound observed to ameliorate the psychotic symptoms of schizophrenia and bipolar mania. It is not a drug with an assigned mission exclusive of all others.
Hiccups are no laughing matter.
I am definitely not stating that Paul should remain on his medication. His doctor might want to discontinue it were Paul to report to him his experiences. I also do not fail to recognize the magnitude of the side effects that are possible with these drugs. I began taking Zyprexa a few days ago with the hope that it would help as a bridge during the washout period following MAOI discontinuation. I have been taking it for three days, and I have experienced a perceptible improvement in clarity of thought rather than an obfuscation of it.
