Do antipsychotics work region specific?

31. Male. 5'5".77 kg. Taking invega sustenna 150 mg monthly depot since June 2024 and taloprex since last week. My doctor says invega works region specific and won't affect dopamine activity in regions like prefrontal cortex. But AI says it blocks dopamine throughout the brain. Who is correct?

Resperidone slurred speech

The doctor added Risperidone 0.5 with nexito 30 mg. After taking it, my speech became slurred. When I spoke to the doctor, he said it was a side effect and stopped the medication. How long will it take for my speech to return to normal? It's been 8 days since I stopped taking it. Sometimes it gets better and sometimes it becomes slurred. Please reply

First time Anxiety Ocd like in teen boy

If a 13 yo who had acute anxiety episode with distressing thoughts like what if some negative creature existed, what if someone did harm to me, for 4 days, first time in life, taken to psychiatrist on 5th day, who counselled and gave etilaam 0.25 for 7 days and sos and ssri flunil 10 for 45 days... he has taken 30 days of ssri till date in morning 10am. His anxiety went off immediately after a day of etilaam although he had drowsiness and slightly low bp from it. He is taking ssri now but he has been having disturbed sleep and daytime yawning and light fatigue especially in evening... he's unable to focus and study for more than 8 to 10 minutes in a stretch,  he starts yawning and takes break. So focus seems to have reduced... also slightly hyperactive behavior at times. He used to study till late night before but now seems fatigue and focus less but he is enjoying watching shows, searching online different things etc. Is this long term ssri unnecessary for him as he has no anxiety now
