> That doesn't suprise me. I don't find glycine terable effective. It does have a nice lightly calming effect, keeps me from worrying. I don't take it alot of the time, just forget and dont' notice it. I often wonder if I should even still take it. But I do occasionaly and it helps a little.

I spoke to my psychopharmocologist who read the document but it mentioned specifically that glycine was not effective for negative symptoms in one study. It did mention that glutamenergic antipsychotics are worth studying. Obviously glycine is a compound and they are developing more targeted agents including a promising one in Phase II by Eli Lilly that is showing strong effects as a primary antipsychotic. That report was from two years ago according to my psychopharmocologist. He explained it to me in this regard and will be publishing my specific study. Obviously due to its nature as a compound in powder format glycine will not become an approved antipsychotic agent but it can and is paving the way for other antipsychotics that will be and still should be considered as an adjunct by psychopharmocologists and a primary if my results can be duplicated in the meantime with people who are unable to tolerate current antipsychotics or develop emergent tardive conditions or diabetes considering the health risks of Clozaril which although has not been shown to cause tardive can often worsen diabetes and for some people due to other disabilities or developing blood dyscreias cannot be taken at all. As for recovery each person is different with any medication, especially one in study.
