> Sorry to chime in but would you care to elaborate? In what way isolating?I felt very alienated and indifferent to people. I would ask a question and as soon as they answered I could care less. another guy described it a living trapped in a box with your thoughts and everything else is just outside it. To be blunt I didn't care about anyone...and I didn't care much about my hobbies or other things. I did have a good sex drive though!
This experience was similar to the way I felt on Abilify and Latuda, both which share a similar mechanism (I can't recall it exactly off the top of my head...5ht1-a antagonism maybe). Made me feel like I might be a psychopath out of sheer disinterest in other people.
