Thanks for bringing that article Robin. I had heard about it but I couldn't access it. It does my heart good too see professionals are willing to find a treatment for schizophrenia. The article mentioned Thorazine, which I took years ago. The effect it gave me we used to call the Thorazine shuffle. I also took Zyprexa which I didn't respond too. I currently take Risperdol Consta and two others, this cocktail seems to be working. I'm hopeful that the reseachers can develop meds that work without the harmful side effects. I must say they have come a long way in the meds. I'll be patient and hope they can find a good med.

I pray every day that a new treatment will be discovered that will not have bad side effects. Maybe they are on the right track and going in the right direction with this new research.
