Struggling in transition with new medication. Overwhelming Shcizophrnia

good evening

I have been on a particular medication for a month now, will take many more months, so it wait and see.
I have tried many other mainly. With middle age and other minor uses. I was wondering if anyone has experience and can explain how it impacts then over other medication.

I was told and years ago it didn't have as many side effects? Did it help compared to more Atypical medication. Other experiences and insight welcome.

Been overwhelmed lately (had hospital stint) ugly as on Treatment Order that was revoked. Crazy time with flood events and many life issues happening. Just rang lifeline before to talk. It helped somewhat. At a lost. 🙂
