Hey! I have schizophrenia/may be schizoaffective (the Diagnosis isn't completely clear yet), so that's why I take Abilify @ 20 mgs daily. I dig what you're saying about the efffects of neuroleptics, especially the early ones, being overstated; the "broken brain theory" of mental illness has been oversold by the drug industry and others...it needs to be balanced out by other theories, but isn't. That said, the newer generation of APs represent a huge step forward for the pharmacological management of a number of disorders.
