Is it reversible tho? Does the brain grow back when you stop taking them? I couldn't find anything

i'm surprised they use antipsychotis still. it's useless other than inducing drowsiness, which is its mainly effect, and can be replaced by other less nocive existing meds. i don't think they do know if it shrinks the brain, this comes from an experiment done on primates, in humans i guess it could be related to accelerated aging process and altered metabolism

There are studies on humans but also on primates and rats

yes, but the alarming ones were the reported on primates. the shrinkage reported in humans isn't worrisome, and confounders such as metabolism can be reverted. what i'd be worried, is the long-term alterations on substantia nigra, and so parkisonism

6-7% on humans is also a lot
Ur supposed to lose that much when Ur 80years old
There are programmers who couldn't code anymore after getting treated with antipsychotics

yes, because it induces drowsiness? it's supposed to make you slower, i don't get your point. i mean you would need to say what type of AP, and for how long they have been on it, also weight before and after

it doesn't matter if it shrinks the brain because the alternative is lobotomy/bullet in skull
