I think that you should try the aripiprazole as it has a pretty different mechanism of action to chlorpromazine/quetiapine (chlorpromazine is a dopamine-2 antagonist and quetiapine is a serotonin-dopamine antagonist, whereas aripiprazole is a doapmine-2 partial agonist), and aripiprazole does good work on negative symptoms. Will he keep you on the chlorpromazine? As aripiprazole can cause activation and insomnia.

	PM me if you want a PDF copy of the ICD-10 or the Mental Health Act 1983/2007. I ALSO HAVE THE DSM-V BOOK and am a pharmacology student. I have a visual impairment / neurological problems so I need people to type in clear text and no funny fonts. Also excuse any typos, my vision blocks things out. I have autism and have problems communicating, PMs included. Just becasue I type well doesn't mean I speak well. I am only part time verbal.
