> Could the anxiety be a result of discontinuing Neuroleptics?
I don't think so. I had discontinued Abilify before discontinuing Parnate. The brain fog / depression / anxiety didn't emerge until I was on Trinellix for two weeks. What a mess. I'm happy that I discontinued the Parnate. It left me feeling lazy and unmotivated, even though it helped the depression somewhat. I had taken it for over three years. It really was a dead end. Of course, I wish that I had tried Effexor instead of Trintellix, but going with Trintellix was the logical move. My doctor had seen several people with chronic TRD respond to it. It was something that I had not yet tried, and it was significantly different from other serotonergic drugs. Effexor has produced mild improvements in the past, but I wasn't taking the other drugs I'm currently on. I actually read a book while taking Effexor years ago. I have read only two books in my adult life. The other book I read was during a short remission produced by taking Parnate + desipramine.
