the title OCPD is misleading since these people don't have obsessions (preoccupation with only one thing, for instance, medical studies:-) nor compulsions (e.g. repetitive behavior that the persons feels he has to do in order to be comfort once again- e.g. washing hands every couple of minutes).

As much as I know Typical(old) antipsychotic function on DOPAMINE (D2-R)receptor antagonism. The atypical(new) antipsychotic function on D2 receptor antagonism, coupled with 5-HT2A receptor antagonism.
Now days they say that anti-psychotics have less of an affinity for D2 receptors and more of an affinity for the D4 receptors.

A schizophreniform disorder is included in the DSM-4-TR under the psychotic disorders. It belongs to the time frame dividing schizophrenia (more than 6 months of attack+prodrome+residue), schizophreniform disorder (more than 1 month but less than 6 months) and brief psychotic episode lasting less than a month. <br />
As in all frank psychiatric illnesses, one must fit a ll criteria for a isorder in order to have one. In many other psychiatric illnesses as well as in other organic disorders, phsychotic attacks may occur, but the DSM classifies in the classification of psychotic disorders that they must not be secondary to a drugs or substance, a general medical condition or another psychiatric disorder. Those suffering from bipolar 2 orschizoaffective dirsorder have a higher risk from those with mood disorders to transfor into a psychotic category.
