> Considering that your psychosis was med induced, you may be able to wein off of the APs if you avoid the offending med(s). I wasnt but that doesnt mean that you arent able to. I too never was psychotic before MAOI.
I've gone long periods of time with no A/P on board since my psychotic reaction to Parnate. The reason I'm currently taking Zyprexa is not to treat psychosis, but hard to treat depression.

> Ouch.I'm so sorry that happened to you Lamdage. Psychosis s*cks. And its tough to discard a group of meds (MAOI's) when they have brought me/you remission. I'm assuming this is why you continued to take them?
You are like the Angel on my shoulder lol. "Don't do it Jade, its not worth it. Bad things could happen".
The Devil is telling me "go for it Jade! remission is in sight!!"

>Believe me Lamdage, I am listening and I hear you. I know you don't want to see me end up with permanent psychosis as a result of MAOI use. I thank you for your very real concern.
