I am on an antipsychotic depot injection. It's used primarily for people with psychosis and also for some autism symptoms.

My psych records list me as having experienced delusions.

Psychosis for me is mania where the mind endlessly wanders and can't determine to choose as to what's reality

^^

Also on anti-psychotics ATM, Firemonkey.

I can go a bit manic sometimes if I drink ALOT of coffee and/or alcohol. It's like I have 'racing thoughts', but I wouldn't say it's psychosis as it's all my own thoughts -- no voices or anything. It can feel scary though. I would want to do/think 20 things at once kind of mania.

I'm on Risperdal Consta a second generation AP. Have been on Zyprexa in the past but was switched to Consta(depot) as I was poor at remembering to take oral meds. Was on a very low dose of Seroquel for a short while for sleeping purposes.

At 10 mgs Zyprexa it made me calmer but gave a lot of somnolence. 2.5mgs hardly any somnolence but not much good therapeutically. 5 mgs balanced things better. I think I weed
about the same as ever.

Never been ill enough to be on Clozapine.
