Did my schizophrenia go away?

I have been taking 10mgs Abilify each night to treat the schizophrenia. Thats all I take. I dont do injections and I dont have symptoms anymore. My psychiatrist said also thats why he doesnt want to add an anti-depressant. I seem to do well on less medication. Im also very sensitive to meds it seems. Certain meds swing me into panic attacks or episdes very easily, stimulants make me irritible but arent as dangerous to me as anti-depressants.

I dont talk to myself. I dont hear voices. I dont see things that arent real. But I have nightmares and like after moving here I was attacked by someone who called herself ashley and she kept talking about heroin and getting high, so I think its related to the apartment and former tenant, because Im sensitive to spirits and I can sense what has beens somewhere once before.

If I drank a few beers, I could be convinced of crazy stuff. I was over at some guys house and when he’s drunk he rants about how he thinks my dad is trying to get over on me and all his conspiracies about my life that arent real and he doesnt even know me. People with PTSD say things that are crazier than I have believed and PTSD is pretty much the same as schizophrenia if it affects u in that way.

So than the solution would be to medicate the trauma away because thats what its been. Maybe thats why I turned to drugs, just medicate away all the questions and pain with pills. Also being told you’ll never amount to anything because you have a broken mind.

That’s awesome- I’m much more controlled now because of meds and I think the time I’ve had this disorder being that I’m middle aged now is definitely helping me. But that’s great that your meds are working so well! Bravo!

yea its a good thing when they work and u take them the right way. i know nothing is permanent. people fear the unknown. why do people fear the knowers of the unknown, thats what confuses me.
