I still refer to it as a “pain in the arse” diagnosis. Yes i know it sounds unfair, but when your constantly od’ing, threats of suicide, and abusing drugs - the local A+E dept got to know me - and i swear they would groan when they saw me.
Personally i think i was just prodromal Psychotic. And i reckoned i recovered with getting older too.
Strange how - as soon as i went on the injection, all the PD stuff went away. So i dont reckon i was in the first place.
For some it does, but I think we generally feel fine, regardless. I know you’re talking about positive/negative symptoms, but we tend to be neutral people. It’s others who have a problem with our negatives.
