He says no one’s going to kill me. Got told I’m dead today. Okay. Bf says if someone was going to hurt me they would have done it already. Yeah because the sky is neon yellow.
Please get a med adjustment. I am in the same boat and that’s about the only thing that will truly help.

Hi most of the time I think people are coming to execute me also. the best way I have found of overcoming it is getting outside and socialise, I find when I try and hide it only makes things worse. Paranoia and isolation seem to go hand in hand

Thinking of you, @roxanna. I’m sorry you’re still struggling so much. I hope you’re able to get the meds you need that will finally give you some relief soon.

“When you’re going through hell, keep going.”
Winston Churchill
Man, you need a little relief from all this intensity you’re going through. Do you have anything you like to do or someplace to go for a little entertainment?
In a movie you sit there in the dark and everybody is focused on the screen, not you. Hit up a restaurant at a slow time for a relaxing meal. Go window shopping. Go to a coffee shop where they have random musicians playing guitar or singing and just sit and listen. Go sit in the library. An early morning, not to strenuous hike in the hills. A quiet museum.
I think the others gave you good advice on your suicidal feelings but you need to work on your life and do something besides constantly sitting and obsessing on your problems with your neighbors. Been there, done that. You need solutions to your problem; concrete things you can do to help yourself instead of spinning your wheels doing the same things over and over. If you’re suicidal, get to the hospital somehow but you have time during the day and you have a computer. Use them to find something to do even if it’s only a couple of hours each week.
Maybe look into some kind of counselor or mental health worker who comes to your own house and visits and maybe she would take a walk with you or fix a nice meal or just sit there and talk a little or play monopoly. There are people out there who do this. You need a break occasionally from your suffering. When I was at my worst, I used to walk downtown to a used book store and check out the books and read a little. It wasn’t crowded and quite peaceful besides my mind going a hundred mph.
Have you heard the term a “calculated risk”? You can take a chance and do something that you know have a very good chance of succeeding at. Good luck @roxanna. My last words are that it’s easy for us schizophrenics (and even-non schizophrenics) To focus so much on ourselves and our problems that we are only seeing a tiny, miniscule part of life. It’s a big world and there’s a lot of beauty and good in the world and a lot of good people.

Dear Roxanna, I do wish you would go inpatient for more than a few days so you could get your meds properly adjusted and have some peace.
I worry about you.

Why are you against clozapine? I know it requires tests, but the people that use it support it strongly
Yeah I’m going to try to go out some more today.

My pdoc stopped my benztropine abruptly. My dreams have people acting out my mental illness. I toss and turn.
It’s for your own good. Maybe clear the mind a little. It would be nice to walk in an area where people are walking dogs. People walking their dogs are the friendliest people; they might say “hi” or you might even get in a innocent conversation. It’s not mandatory, lol, but it’s nice.
