detroitguy Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Coming off of anti psychotics or even reducing the dosage can take a long time. This is because of withdrawal symptoms due to brain changes caused by the drug. Try and go easy on yourself and take it very slowly to give your brain adequate time to adjust.
