I am sorry. We are thinking about you. Have courage, stay strong. Just one day at a time.

So sorry. I wish they would put nortriptyline, amitriptyline, or imipramine in the mix. For depression with psychosis that doesn't respond to antipsychotics, those go very well with seroquel.

I don't think that's Jeroen's diagnosis -- he's mentioned schizophrenia, I think, rather than depression with psychotic features... (I could be wrong, of course...)

That's what I remember before. I'm sorry to hear that you've been at the hospital 120 days, which is rather long by western standards, in fact almost unheard of in the US except for ICU patients.

They still aren't sticking to one antipsychotic at at time?

And I'm curious how abilify is not aggravating your other complaints, but maybe as I said you need the medication anyhow.
