zyprexa has always seemed to work well for me. However due to weight gain i try to only take it as needed. which tend to be the winter months. it seems around november-ish through about march or so i tend to need augmenting.
But it seems to have always been my go-to drug. started in 2004, and off and on till -i was on it from Oct 2012-March 2013.Abilify, got extreme anger-increased dissociative episodes.
Seroquel gave me cognitive blunting.
Risperidal did nothing for me.
perphenazine was Great for my extreme anxiety
haloperidol didn't do much for my extreme anxietythere might have been another AAP (SGA) that i've been on but can't think of one for now.
but yes, zyprexa. it always seems to do the trick...and quickly (the brand anyway) generic do seem to take a bit longer to kick in.
