I am so well today. I can totally teach people how to get to this state, it’s not cheap though.
I’m unmedicated, voices are so mild that if I am annoyed by them I can take a half mg of Haldol and get total peace of mind. They’re not surrounding me anymore, to the extent that I’d hear messages over every noise. Now noises just sound like noises.
You just have to try to power through it and maybe try new meds. I struggle predominantly with negative and cognitive symptoms as my positive symptoms are treated effectively but lately I have been doing better likely due to my new addition of Viibryd as an antidepressant at 10 mg.
Medication won’t solve it all, you just have to do the best you can and realize you may not be up to par with doing what you used to be able to do. It’s not easy working with mental deficiencies but try not to give up.
No problem, it helps to be able to talk about this stuff with others here too because alot of the time our brain tells us we are worse off than we actually are.
I have almost given up so many times but many of the times things are temporary and I am able to get back to a better place later. I know I won’t ever be who I used to be mentally but that doesn’t mean I am useless or worthless.
yea i think we gotta accept that we can’t work. I’m on disability for quite some time already now and i feel better accepting that i won’t work anymore.
