> Other than psychosis it was very effective. Especially for social anxiety. So it did hurt when it turned out that it is no good for me. I didn't want to accept. This is the reason why I often advocate for carefulness with meds!
>Right. When a drug is effective but induces serious adverse effects, it is a dilemma whether to continue or not. This may be particularly common in the case of lithium (at high doses), because for some people it works so well, but long-term use can lead to permanent kidney damage. Antipsychotics (APs) often have serious metabolic adverse effects, such as obesity and diabetes, and when the drug works better than other APs, there is a difficult decision to make.
