I didn't fill my antipsychotic in time and can't get it until Monday, and I'm withdrawing, but my head is working faster and processing better... but in the past i tried going without a antip med and I ended up badly manic, though my head wasn't foggy. I wish I could be more clear headed on the meds, sigh... anyone else?

I withdrew cold turkey from an antipsychotic med ~3 years ago (I'm not on any anymore). I can relate to feeling like you are processing things better. It can be really hard, being on antipsychs, with the way they change your brain. Even if they help with symptoms/difficult experiences, it can still feel awful. I hope you're ok for the rest of the weekend.
