Changing to pills from the shot

How to change? My pdoc didn’t approve of it because she thinks I am not med compliant

Shot is better. Why you wanna change?

so i can go off the meds when i dont need it anymore

Ha I knew it. No, it’s not a good idea. You shouldn’t be able to quit whenever you want. Your pdoc knows better, dude

I think the shot is right for you, because you’ll quit taking your APs if you go off the shot

theres times i dont feel like im psychotic at all…

You are not psychotic because of the meds in your system.

i guess thats true but is it right to force me to take the shots for ever?

I have to take medication for the rest of my life.
It’s the nature of this disorder.

yeah but i dont have SZ I only have had 1 or 2 episodes im not sure if the another one counts since it was short lived delusions

Listen to your doctors

im trying to but seriously i dont want to take these meds forever, they decrease your intelligence and other cognitive functions

Psychosis is worse

Psychosis reduces your intelligence much more lmao I quit my meds and became much more stupid.

i know but there is no reason why would i become psychotic again

i guess but i feel stupid already dont need meds to reduce it even more

You are not stupid, you are very intelligent for your age.

how? i think i maybe was intelligent but not anymore

why am i not allowed to quit

Because you’re sick. You just lack the insight to see it, and that’s the nature of psychosis
