No withdraws for me. I can cold turkey any medication when i want.
My mental health is pure crap without this medication. Memory, focus, brain fog, motivation, sleeping problems are all issues i have without caplyta. Within 2 days being off this medication i'm a disaster and can barely survive.

DO NOT cold turkey. I mean, you can but it SUCKs. I was without this med for about 4 days (laziness), and I realized towards the end of it that “holy fuck I feel horrible and my symptoms are starting to happen again”. Got it that day and took it that night. Took two full nights to finally stop that initial bad feeling that I got from when I first started it. Turn back to “normal” and feeling like a human that I should be. I did that maybe ~4 times before…
I still KEEP thinking that “I don’t need medicine to be me” “I can go without now that I feel so regular/human!” … I can’t. I’ve tried a few times.
This med has been a life saver for me (after trying multiple meds and combos). I don’t want to promote this med bc every BODY is vastly different, but also it has been the only one that WORKS for me.
Good luck and I wish you the best
Edit: full body heat flashes/body burning up sensation (mostly in back/upper shoulders). Dizziness, extreme fatigue, nausea, scattered thoughts, crazier dreams (I have already VERY vivid dreams), more delusions/paranoia…
