If you were not psychotic but prescribed an antipsychotic, can you expect to be a changed person after withdrawing? anxiety depression was initial dia

Likely not: Your baseline personality remains the same. When u taper off on the medicine do it slowly. Follow up with your psychiatrist. These may help you- get enough sleep , stay active and exercise , smile and laugh more often, live each day for tomorrow may not come, watch comedy shows on youtube, do meditation and deep breathing exercises!

Well, : No change in personality traits should be changed however if you took those medications for a long time no sudden withdrawing should be done as this can cause quite severe problems. I am not a psychiatrist but this is common sense. Hope a specialist with answer this better.

No: The class names do not always reflect the spectrum of uses of a medication. The med does not change who you are as a person--just help you through a difficult time / overcome symptoms.
