Aripiprazole

I think it’s good for drug induced psychosis to stay on meds fully for like two years at least before slowly coming off I think that’s what pdocs in UK recommends

Yeah I’m from Wales. Country in UK.

Yes I don’t know where they stem from but it’s stuff like my motivation to do normal things is lower than usual my energy levels are lower than usual, concentration etc…

Yea pip really does!

I had really bad negatives for ages. Only took shower once a week. Slept in clothes as I couldn’t motivate myself to change. I’m a lot better now. Cooked meal and did household chores today. Going to tidy my room and go for walk tonight.

Do you think you’ll get better?

Cool. Maybe it’s because your body is adjusting to lower doses or maybe it’s just that aripiprazole is much better for u.

I’ve only taken aripripazole for one day. Had shakes earlier.

I had negatives even when not on anti psychotics.

that’s a good question lol.

I don’t really feel comfortable to say…
Last year I got better for a few months and then two months ago it went rough again.

What happened when u got I’ll?

Oh so did I at first but then wen weaning off after being on them it got better… I’m glad urs are getting better now.

It’s always some long story but in a few sentences the first time round I believed I was going to hell for eternity… Basically n I was preparing to explode in a park lying on the ground waiting to die and be woken up again to die another way again n again for eternity… That was the end point of my first psychosis before I was sectioned cos people were wondering why I was lying on the park ground telling them to stay away

Wat kind of things happened to you?

Yeah I sat under a tree for 48 hours and got sectioned. I’ve heard voices have you?

I just got withdrawn and went into my own work hearing voices and having dellusions.

Yes I’ve heard voices.

Did u hear a few at once?

It’s just so crazy how real the voices and delusions can be. Even second time round

Nope never. Have you heard more than one at once?
