I agree the antipsychotics are horrible for people who are dysphoric to begin with. That said, I can tolerate them better than the SSRIs, not that they're more effective though. I think the antipsychotics just distract me from my usual problems by forcing me to battle with that leaden sedation.
Does anyone else find that dopamine agonists generally make them feel light and energetic while antagonists make them feel heavy and tired? I find the mood brightening effect of amisulpride (D2 agonist) more satisfying and substantial than that produced by the SSRIs.
