I want to come off all medication

They’re ruining my eyes and trying to destroy me.

If you’re getting visual side effects you can report it to your doctor and see what they say.

If you’re on meds it’s probably for a good reason though.

Are you on Abilify? That’s known to cause blurry vision. Maybe a med switch is in order?

I told my doctor and he stopped giving me topamax but I think it may be haldol.

I take haldol, cogentin, zoloft, and lithium or topamax (that is whichever one my mom decides to give me).

Me too. Too bad that’s not possible. I am going to try lowering my dosage of antipsychotics though.

Ok. Give it some time then, he hopefully got it right.

I’m going to ask for a change in meds the next time I see my pdoc - because I don’t like the blurred vision I get. I never used to care but now I’m interested in reading so, obviously, I want a change. I know better than to try going off meds - from past disastrous experiences. :slightly_smiling_face:

Guys they’re trying to destroy me…

Ditto I don’t want to be on meds don’t believe in medication. Before meds I lifted weights every day and ate good im not joking but I felt better before I ever got on meds. The only reason I got to psych ward cuz my dad said ur not staying with me i am driving u to psych ward so I had no where to go so why not psych ward every time im in there I treat it like a holiday inn. Basically meds shouldn’t be made

Why am I on meds for schizophrenia when I don’t have schizophrenia doesn’t make sense

I think there are people who need meds. I am just thinking that maybe I’m not one of them.

That’s how I feel. I wonder why I was even diagnosed. I have my ideas. But a small part of me thinks maybe I do have sza. I dunno.

That’s how I feel but if I did I’ll be given a injection I don’t want which is worse then the pills I’m taking

I would hate that. I’m not sure what I’m going to do.

They put you on meds for a reason. They must have seen or heard something from you that made them think you need meds.

I’ve been reading your posts since you got here. You are absolutely one of the people who needs their meds.

Topamax gave me horrible eye problems that stopped when I stopped taking it. I have no eye problems on Haldol. Try to be patient with the Topamax withdrawal before adjusting your AP.
