"I was on this medicine for at least 10 years - from age 21 after a psychotic-type illness in a mental hospital with depression and anxiety but no active symptoms of schizophrenia. The dose of around 5-10 mgs nightly had very adverse effects on me, such as memory loss - of events, conversations, visual memories of places recently visited, extreme fatigue after sexual activity/erectile dysfunction, and great difficulty in concentration for reading, following TV programs, etc. Was switched to Modecate depot injections from 1980 to 1998 with similar severe adverse side effects - with atypical new medicines added on the 2nd admission; namely Amisulpride - dropped 25 mgs of Modecate injections on my own volition, totally cured now on 50 mgs amisulpride."

"I take 1 mg daily. So far, it is very effective, I tend to be able to be more relaxed and can sleep with clear and peaceful thoughts, where I used to be laying in bed for 20 minutes thinking too much. But it seems not to do much for my social anxiety. Overall, pretty effective."
