In /med/ they asked us to don't spoil their thread.
Which board should we move to?
In last schizo thread we reached general opinion, that some treatment is abuse.
Neurologist in /med/ confirmed psychiatry is scam.
Don't quit your meds cold turkey, it's dangerous survivingantidepressants.org
Also if anybody advice you psychadelics against depression, don't take them while you're on anti-depressants, it can harm you.

I needed my antipsychotics for a few other reasons, but what's the risk here with mixing it with antidepressants

Anti-psychotics, if you mean medication, are ok to mix with anti-depressants, there are some antipsychotics that are prescribed to depressive patients more often. Anxiliotics(like benzos) are however much different story, and if you mix them with anti-psychotics overal effect of that combination will be that you'll be very sedated and/or confused.

I'm schizo with substance abuse...
Antipsychotics made me feel shit, so I didn't took them or compensated with crystal meth.
Now I'm on antipsychotics as well as on antidepressants(mirtazapine + citalex) and it works wonders and I am adherent to medication because I don't feel bad thanks to them. Like I don't have such severe resistance to voluntary movement I must overcome when I want to move like I had only on anti-psychotics, I'm not so stupid. Only downside of not doing meth but mirtazapine every night is that I sleep at night(I like when monitor and neonlights I placed next to tesla ball are only source of lightning, maybe some 40watt 2600K light and I can do stuff on computer, I hate sun, and I love when there's just lowlight and I have chemically induced mydriasis). However, on combo like this I can stay off crystal, therefore I have some long term goals instead of just stuff that can be done at once in 3 days.

bpd, autism OCD and "psychosis prone". Olanzapine worked super well for me and also fixed my sleep but lead to massive weight gain. I feel super irritable after stopping it and I've been having way more intrusive thoughts and flashbacks.
for depression desvenlafaxine has worked best out of the antidepressants I've tried but I still get suicidal rather often.
for sleep I've recently tried Temazepam and zolpidem and neither seem to be working well

Of course they did, they are in the world's least ethical profession after all.

Olanzapine ruined my life, I can't enjoy weed anymore even at heroic doses, it killed my dopamine receptors hard enough so that enjoying anything ever again is nearly impossible, I can't even enjoy an orgasm after applying nofap for several weeks or enjoy a cigarette.

Currently on aripiprazole injections for my court ordered treatment. Honestly, not that bad, I only gained weight but I still feel like I can function and have fun with coffee and weed. Acts as a good mood stabilizer and just makes it so I don't have as major mood swings.
I was having psychotic symptoms last march and a bout of nighttime hallucinations of things biting me, attacking me, and also just dealing with shitty DMT entities.
I still try to explore the remoteness of inner space by taking supplements like 5-HTP, and so I don't really feel crazy when my hallucinations come up, cause I've got acquainted to just hating the fuck out of DMT entities because they molest me in my sleep.
Only some molestations I liked, like when I dreamed one morning in my computer room this flying girl who whipped out her titty for me to suck before waking up, and another sleep paralysis episode where the woman laid on top of me and we made out, when I tried to grab her, she turned into the blankets.

Phenylpiracetam increases density of D2/D3, if that helps.
