Maybe you could switch to a less potent antipsychotic and then do a veeeeery gradual taper? Seroquel is good for anxiety and isn't as bad as zyprexa in terms of obesity and diabetes. Its also very low-potency, so maybe a switch would let you slowly taper off the seroquel and give your brain more time to adjust to being off antipsychotics.
That's all I can come up with. Benzos, taken as needed, might help.
