I can only speak for myself here,
Before I was on meds I never had a great memory was unorganised etc...
After being on Lactimal and Zyprexa my memory has been destroyed. Wiped out. First by Zyprexa and then finished off with Lactimal. I forget simple words mid sentance, I can't remember how to spell simple words, I forget peoples names that I have known for years.
I don't see how this would help med naieve people who already have memory problems.
Infact I think the results are disasterous.
Memory/cognative problems can already cause great stress to someone who is working.. cause them to be fired or to quit their job.
How does it help to drug someone out of a job, further ruin their self esteem and spend the rest of their life out of the workforce.
