My grandfather used to say “just calling to check up on you”.

I am writing to “check up on you”…

Cancer,death of loved ones,hospitalisation,symptoms etc…

How are you guys going?

I have wanted to check up on individual but get muddled up with names etc so am just writing to ask how are you doing ?

Are you coping?

Do you have enough support etc?

I myself was threatened with hospitalisation but am better since my medication increase (except for weight gain,severe jaw clenching and ear ache that I think are side effects.)

So🙂how are ya?

I’m not doing too bad. I’m quite stable now.

I’m glad you’re more stable too since your med increase.

Well currently I’ve been sleeping too much and feeling in patches very distressed, sometimes without any apparent immediate symptoms. I need to see the doctor again as I’m not sure if 5mg of olanzapine is enough to treat my condition properly.

You should tell your doctor about those. But maybe they’ll go away as you get used to the higher dose anyway.

Just peachy. I was doing my errands this morning and I was inside stores and I experienced great peace of my mind and my mind wasn’t racing. It felt so good. In fact, I just noticed as I write this that I feel that way too.

It probably helps that the weather is beautiful today and I just finished a chicken sandwich from a whole chicken I cooked three days ago.

It’s been so long since my psychosis during my late teens and early twenties in 1980 that all my psychosis and craziness and suffering back then seems like a dream. Back then, I had no relief from symptoms for even a minute. I’m a hundred times better now.
Except my damn head keeps itching.

Glad you are in good spirits and well​:ghost::two_hearts::slightly_smiling_face:.

I can relate to 24/7 …horridness.
When I heard voices it was 24/7.every second and the only relief was when I was super drunk from binge drinking or sleeping :zzz:.

Things got better .the voices stopped.
Now it’s other symptoms for me delusions n some other things.

Good to read you are well and positive.
That it’s a beautiful day where you are.

I am going to bring up the side effects with my dr again but hopefully it will settle.

How are you guys going with socialising ?

Well I’ve been a loner all my life, and generally don’t speak to people unless they talk to me first. I’m not any good at making friends. Been that way since I was a kid.

I am well. I have my headphones off, and I’m not hearing too much weird stuff tonight.

Just got back from dinner with my sisters. I think I held up my part of the conversation pretty well.

Sz I’m on top of these days. Do really well.

Mum not so good. Just out of hospital for the third time. The melanoma has her and it’s not very pretty!

So I’d say it’s a mixed bag for sure!
