How can i get off antipsychotics without a psychiatrist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antipsychotics: You really should not try, please do it under md supervison, if not happy with your current psych md see another one, stopping meds will lead to relapse of symptoms such as paranoia, voices, mood swings etc.
