Hello,

my pdoc has prescribed me aripriprazole and it’s the only anti-psychotic I have been taking, does it related to schizophrenia or something else? currently my pdoc is only giving me some anti-depressant and etizolam to control my anxiety.

    Auto generating responses on this kind of subjects is disrespectful.

    And the response is largely irrelevant to the question.

        I didn’t auto generate it. I wrote it and used a tool to format it for clarity and to help me avoid excessively clinical language. I have ADHD and when I get to really talking about this stuff I have a tendency to create unorganized text walls full of words like pseudoparkinsonianism and oculogyric crisis (two things abilify is a lot less likely to cause than thorazine).

        You asked what it was for and why it might have been prescribed, so I actually worked kinda hard to make a specific patient education snippet that introduced the rudimentary concepts then specifically focused in on the medication you asked about. I tried really hard to avoid a giant text wall of anecdotes about my ten years of professional inpatient psych experience and 15 years experience taking antipsychotics personally. I reread it several times to make sure that all of it was still accurate even after having the medical terminology simplified.

        I took time out of my evening to create personalized patient education material for you for free. You’re really ungrateful and I really regret trying this hard to help you.

      well this is the last time I spend 30 minutes customizing and formatting patient education materials to focus on a specific medication someone asked about
