Or i feel pre psychotic and pretty angry.
I thought the reducing would go on and on until im at 200 Seroquel only.
But it is getting hard now. I dont know what to do.

ummm...sometimes, people have to be firmly in recovery for a little bit before dosage reductions can happen. Not a big deal.
I would imagine, based on personal experience, that some sort of sedative for a while would help you reduce your neuroleptic load. Have you tried that?

Hmm no not yet.
I had that thought, too. I was thinking Neurontin!
But i dont think my doctor will do that.
I can still ask though.
Lorazepam helps, but its only a "twice a week" thing.

neurontin. for me, trileptal helps keep my abilify (or...whatever...) dose lower. Without the trileptal+lamictal, I'd probably be on high dose seroquel.

Hmm then again it would be just another medication my kidney and liver have to process.
If for some reason i couldnt take my low dose lithium anymore, that would be tragic.
