My symptoms are mostly managed on medication but I do have moments where I don’t feel them working. Yesterday, I felt that my dog could hear my thoughts and it freaked me out; I also have moments where I get really paranoid. Is this the same for everyone else? I haven’t heard anything for a few days so at least that’s a plus.
I hear voices on medication.
I have times where I think that someone put a recorder in my car so they can listen to me. I still get paranoid around people but its not as bad as it was. Most of my symptoms are managed by the medicine. I don’t hear voices anymore and my delusions are in check too.
I have a day or two of interpreting body language or have disorganised thoughts for a day or two every now and then
Usually just voices, lately most of the time, none
I am on an antipsychotic, mood stabilizer/antidepressant type drug, and a Benzo and still have breakthrough symptoms all of the time.
Meds usually make the picture a little better, but sometimes they do not completely eliminate symptoms all of the time
I have breakthrough symptoms on every single medication I have tried, but the medication calmed the voices down where they are not constant, which was a living hell. So thankful for some quiet time in my brain. One injected medication in a hospital setting almost paralyzed me. Was given Benadryl and slowly recovered full physical movement. I hear it is rare to recover from this tardive dyskenesia I think it is called. I was reading that there are different types of schizophrenia and that my late onset paranoid type is less brutal than other types. So sorry for those going through worse than me.
