whats so bad about stopping antipsychotics?

Posted by xbunny on June 12, 2006, at 8:58:54

I am considering completely stopping my antipsychotic drug, I currently only take a low dose of a medium potency drug. I have discussed this with my wife and she is ok with it and it has already been suggested by my psychiatrist. Apart from the chance of relapsing some months or years later what are the possible consequences of this? In a previous post Ed implied that stopping antipsychotics can be difficult, would anyone like to comment on this? what difficulties might be anticipated? Has anyone any personal experiences of stopping antipsychotics they might like to share?
Best regards, Bunny
