A member asked:
What happens if i refuse all antipsychotic medication how long until i relapse if at all?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: This depends on the reasons for being given the antipsychotic, how much support you have, and whether you're able to discern when your symptoms are becoming dangerous. Your own physicians can tell you what may happen, much better than we can. They have followed you over time, and we have not.
