In reply to Atypicals No Better Than First Generation Per Stud, posted by Phillipa on October 23, 2010, at 23:45:41
For me, there is no comparison in the way I felt on first-generation neuroleptics to the newer atypical neuroleptics. The older ones made me feel weird. They produced a heavy-duty drugged-up feeling. I guess it would be likened to having done a chemical lobotomy. I have not had this kind of unwanted reaction to any of the atypicals. I feel more like myself when I take these drugs.
If we were to take into consideration only how effective neuroleptics are to reducing shizoid and psychotic symptoms, we miss a great deal in evaluating how these drugs affect the quality of life.
