I was not in a particularly receptive mode to pharmacological interventions when I was forced to sample molindone. I had had a harrowing experience with prozac not long before and was so naive (read: pre-Internet days) that I had no idea about the different classes of psych meds. I think perphenazine is more sedating, which 'calmed me down' enough to tolerate the drug minimally.

Perphenazine's sedation probably masked the akathisia that was (as best i recall) the reason for d/x'ing molindone, and I also developed intensified akathisia on Prozac. I have akathisia anyway, though less as I've gotten older and more lethargic.

Time, energy, and focus. That third variable that is so essential and so elusive. I wrote this post on the bus,where focus was easier to come by, and am typing from memory. Focus..
