"Is it going to effect anything if I start taking my antipsychotics again? They wanted me to start on caplyta. I'm just terrified." — @Le-penduYes, it could very well affect things. Why do they want you on an antipsychotic again? You don't have to agree if you don't feel comfortable.

"I have schizophrenia and its starting to take a toll on people i love" — @Le-penduI'm sorry to hear this. Have you ever tried Metabolic Therapy using a Ketogenic diet for your schizophrenia? Many people have seen improvement in their symptoms by doing this. Long-term antipsychotic use has many health risks and side effects. Just some food for thought. We'll support you no matter what you decide.
