Hi lybrate-user, it's the doctor who decides which category you belong to, they know it better. So if he has prescribed medicines for you, you should take it first and when it's under control you can go for therapy sessions.

Dear lybrate-user,
amusulpride is a antipsychotic and not an antidepressant. When we want to discontinuea psychotrophic ithas to be done in a slowlytapering way. Other wise you experience what is a called withdrawl raction, which make you feel worse when you stop that medicine. Please consult a psychiatrist regarding how to stop amisulpride.

As schizophrenia is a complex mental disorder. Reducing or tappering of dosages may result in relapse. So tappering and dosage adjustment must be done under a guidance of psychiatrist only.

Dear lybrate-user,
as I have already answered, schizophrenia needs long term maintenance dose of tablets. Relapses are worse to treat. You have not had any relapse since you were continuously on tablets. Your doctor is reducing the tablets, its dose and to less powerful tablets like aripiprazole. Let your doctor decide how long you will be on 15 mg. Since you don't have much side effect with aripiprazole, why don't you take it till the doctor decides the maintenance dose and tablet.

Hello Mr. lybrate-user
I hope you are having positive effects of the medicine you are presently taking. As it always varies from person to person.
But in case you have never tried for psychotherapy, you should give it a try. As it always is beneficial to work on your PSYCHOLOGICAL part of anxiety.
Though you can continue your medication, CBT from a professional PSYchologist will have positive impact on you, if you have willpower to do so.
Take help!
