I just started clozapine about two weeks ago. It think it has helped the suicidal thoughts, although I still do ECT.
Thank God something is working. |

Not on it, but I assume from what you have said that you have tried many medications?
The 'thank God something is working part' as well as the fact that clozapine and ECT are usually last resorts. __________________ Tic-Tac |

I'm glad it is working for you. I think I previously told you that it has been a great med for me and I'm suddenly doing better than ever before in my life right now which I think is the clozapine. I've been on it 2.5 years now.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
