I don't know if raising the dose is a good idea. If its "pooping out," that usually means your brain is changing, and with antipsychotics that could mean that you're D2 receptors are up-regulating, which puts you at risk of "super-sensitivity psychosis" if you continue to up the dose. Then again..if you need symptom control, you need symptom control. Have you tried any anticonvulsants? Adding one in might keep you from having to up your dosage.
