My situation has improved too.
it improved over the years but the negative symptoms tend to persist so i have to make efforts there.
My life has been constantly improving since being diagnosed with schizophrenia.
There has been a slight improvement in the last two years. I still hope to heal one day,
My life has improved drastically.
Improved a lot. I’m more ’ normal ’ for sure…whatever that is.
It got worse before it got better but it’s better now.
Now that I have treatment after the psychotic episode I think better now than at the prodomal stage.
I’ve improved dramatically since onset. I can meet or beat neurotypicals in functioning at work. I can pass for normal for extended periods when I need to. Meds and therapy are key.
Of course it improved, I was insane and suicidal.
Blehhhhhhh I feel like crap all the time sad to say I’ve gotten worse
Meds didn’t help you at all?
I was good after my first break… had a job and met my now husband… now a year after my second break it’s deteriorated… can’t hold down a job… still have delusions/voices sometimes but I think it’s slowly getting better.
Meds help but I’m slowly getting worse
My journey started out badly, but I’ve gotten good care and while I still struggle I can take care of my family and myself most of the time. Stress has a lot to do with my health. So I work at being free of stress.
I was improved. Then my doctor took my zyprexa away in 2018 and I had a psychotic break and was hospitalized. You never know what will happen. Now I have ptsd and a tremor in my left hand.
To use a football analogy: By mid 1982 I was a team facing not being re-elected to the football league, or even worse folding due to bankruptcy . By the mid 1980s I’d become what would now be called a championship league team . I’ve stayed in that league since then .
As long as I’m not in the hospital I call that a win.
