Great to know about this 😊😊

​@@xxbeccabrutalityxx7873Wow you're so unique. People usually want to quit because of side effects not worth the benefits anymore.

@@cuekinaja I quit them a while after making that comment bc of the side effects ngl. Never thought I would, but I did. Last night, hallucinated having everything I ever wanted.. I'm in such a dark place now, after quitting them. But if this delusion can sometimes give me everything I everwanted, rather than the delusion of being less than miserable on meds, maybe it isn't so bad after all.. idk... I'll probably end up back in the nut house very soon tbh... but wow it felt so good to pet my deceased cat and to hold my baby brothers again... I just wish it had been real and not a hallucination Maybe it's better if I never stop my meds again I'm so sad all the time now, worse than before. But I finally got to hold them all one more time. Even if it wasn't real. Even if I quit my good job and now make part time minimum wage. Even if I cry all the time and developed alcoholism since quitting my meds this year At least I got to hold them I'm not being sarcastic or funny or a dick. I'm just so conflicted and confused now. Like, what really is better? Being emotionless, or being miserable yet occasionally (even if it was a hallucination) getting to love the ones I love most one last time? Is a better job really worth never seeing their beautiful faces again? I'm not so sure anymore. Is it better to be easy to understand and empty, than to be difficult and sad yet at least true and real? No clue now I'm sure I'll go back on them soon. But god damn... it felt so good to be able to hold them one more time. It felt so fuckin real. Damn

Ditto

I want to know this too. I feel like my dopamine is lost.

I've heard that it takes months, a year or in some people maybe two to recover.

Do psychiatrists even care ? Do coroners cover up suicides ?

Same here it destroyed my dopamine 😮

Me too

Olanzapine

My Mom just died from it cause her heart to stop!😢

I don't think I'm stopping

Trembling of the hands, eyes, lips. Rolling of the eyes (oculargyric crisis) is a sudden onset type of dystonic reaction, same with the jaw and tongue. In my case anyway

You get the prize

Once in a while, you could add an answer to a question

Thats a good one we haven't covered

I take propranolol everyday. I too would like to know more about it.

Exactly

Every antipsychotic carries the risk of TD.

There is always risk it's significantly lower in the newer medications as explained in the video.

@@ShrinksInSneakers ok

It's a good option in that cases and has the lowest risk. That would be one strategy the other option would be to use the new FDA approved treatments VMAT-2 inhibitors.

Many of the atypical medications have mechanism that result in antidepressant effects. For example abilify will increase dopamine levels and act as an agonist in low dopamine states at 5-10 mg/day. Seroquel will stimulate serotonin receptors at 150-300 mg doses, same goes for ziprasidone. So it's not the dopamine D2 blocking effects that help with depression it's these other minor mechanisms that can be leveraged for the antidepressant effects. Hope this makes some sense

​@@ShrinksInSneakers My doctor prescribed Risperidone for my Bipolar mania phase, but I saw that it is an antipsychotic, now I have doubts

@@ShrinksInSneakers there use to be drofmindmd psych doc on youtube who you really resemble because he as you really liked play with every psych substances and dosages. Just like you, he desappeared and you will probably follow his way sooner or later.

​@@ShrinksInSneakersFrom where I stand; the manner in how many psych meds work (especially RE: antidepressants, antipsychotics/neuroleptics, & benzodiazapines), I'm so much better off DRINKING BEER!!!!! Alcohol (the primary ingredient in beer) has the same effect as psych meds but leaves ur system much quicker than psych meds do.

What did you experience when trying to stop seroquel? I just started on 25mg for C-PTSD and BPD

@@xujznajit not good, alot of ticks, huge insomnia...so i Rather take the small dose 🙏

This is beyond the scope of what I can answer here but the The cumulative incidence is about 4% to 5% annually; the prevalence rate is 20% to 30%. It's significantly lower in those taking second generation medications, and much lower in younger adults than older adults. Clozapine has virtually no risk. Schizophrenia itself is known to cause movement disorders in the absence of antipsychotic treatment which is a fact few are aware of

Thanks. I'm 27 and I started taking them a few years ago, so I guess the risk is low. When I took Invega Sustenna along with a really low dose of clozapine (25-50mg), I had a lot of akathisia and also acute dystonia of the neck. And also postural hypotension. Furthermore, when I took about 200-300mg of clozapine alone, I felt extremely sedated and had sialorrhea. So I guess clozapine is not a good drug for me.

@@kauebotsman2676 clozapine sialorrhea can be treated effectively. You can also follow blood levels which have a clearly defined range. There is virtually no risk for TD and EPS risk. I'm still a fan and sometime dosing it all at night helps with sedation.

But I used to take it all at night, and still was sleeping all day long. And the few hours I was awake, I actually felt like I was in sort of a dream-like state. Also, the weekly blood tests were kinda annoying. But I know it's a good drug for many people. Just didn't work well in my case

@@kauebotsman2676 thats fair, there just aren't a whole lot of places to go from there with said evidence from a pharmacology perspective. People don't always think about it but CBT has been shown to help with positive symptoms

I talked about this in another video, it stimulates M4 and M1 cholinergic receptors. This is a way of modulating dopamine and glutamate transmission without directly blocking dopamine receptors. I believe they hope to have this medication approved by the second half of 2024

Cuz its poison🧠🧪

They can affect your hormones and dopamine receptors

lol, I like this it just hasn't been my experience that seeing a psychiatrist is scary or dangerous unless the goal is to create more stigma surrounding the evidence based treatment of mental health disorders. Cool part is I treat people every day with severe mental illness and it's hard to appreciate if you never treated anyone who is grossly psychotic or manic

I was in a hell of a lot more fear when I was too manic and delusional to be able to ask a psychiatrist for help. After going to my psychiatrist and a mental hospital, I can finally live within reality again. I can eat, sleep, think, and heal now. I'm more afraid of the stigma attached to getting the necessary help for disorders like mine than I am of my doctor

@@xxbeccabrutalityxx7873 everyone is different, some people don’t experience side effects but those who do experience pain
