I can’t answer that. Might be worth asking dr. It’s good you feel better going down a dose though.
I have my parents and my best friend who are watching me all the time. I feel safer this way. For example, they noticed 3 months ago something that I didn’t: my upper lip was moving strangely. It could have been the beginning of tardive dyskinesia. It was another reason for me to stop taking abilify…
You are funny, but kind
No I wish you luck as I know how it feels
But i think we arent in the same situation. Do you?
Being psychotic and really lost made my alogia way worse… would be too involved in my delusions to be able to follow conversation
I’ve done this several times under supervision. I’m stable enough that my docs wanted to see if I was one of the 25% who can function without meds. Turns out that I’m not. Hoping that you are – that would be so awesome for you. Good luck.
Thanks for the kind words but which med are you on and how much? Im on kind a nothing
Used to be on 2mg/day of Rexulti. Currently on 4mg/day as I’m having more trouble than usual from keeping the nasties in the corner of my head where they belong. My day job is more stressful than I had bargained on. Hoping to eventually get down to 2mg. That, and trying to figure out how to find blackmail goods on my cardiologist so I can go back on Geodon. That jerk.
What did you cardiologist do?
He had me taken off Geodon as a preventative measure. I’m on pacemaker number four and I have a congenital heart defect: transposition of the great vessels with complications. Also, a complete heart block and heart murmur. Geodon was my miracle med – I could go for extended periods with ZERO positive symptoms and feel normal. The curse of being too stable is that I now get to bump along on a sh–ty med.
I dont understand it. But what did he do wrong then?
bet some people without a mental heath diagnosis do have alogia to some extend
Yes but are they psychotic? Im not
they are not psychotic,i think I am not also
Do you take meds?
no(15 character)
Really and how are your negative symptoms?
still okay,been through that phrases already,meaning I am not using negative symptoms as a excuse.
