Schizophrenia - General Discussion
in Psychology & Therapy ·
Dana Vaughn said:Personally, I don't think it's a bad drug, but in my case, things changed because she used to put me on a heavy dose of Seroquel, which she has since scaled back significantly. I find my memory is slipping, along with my ability to perceive things clearly, make logical connections, or even just concentrate. I honestly can't tell if it's the medication itself causing this, or if some kind of dependency has set in. I've been thinking about dropping the antipsychotics entirely—maybe just sticking with the Depakote—and trying to manage things with herbal teas and St. John's Wort. I really just want to be free from these pills. For context, my diagnosis is other acute and transient psychotic disorders.
Dana, you got a message.
