My wife was put on AP's for a bad manic episode. The horrible thing is, she never heard voices until she was put on AP's! The more voices she heard, the more her AP's were increased, and the worse things got. It has been a horrible 9 months, but we are slowly taking her off the AP's and she seems to be getting better. If you ever come off AP's be aware that a withdrawl reaction will probably happen where the voices will get worse (your brain is dealing with hypersensitve neurons and it takes a while to adjust to the drug not being there). After a month or so, things will calm down (your brain has adjusted) and you may start to feel better. It takes patience.
AP's are HARD on the body - look into B vitamins and Fish Oil to help with your mania. they really work!! Has helped my wife.
Search "orthomolecular psychiatry" on the web.
Good luck and God bless.
