with drugs do you mean like street drugs or your meds?

you can try to stop meds if you only had one episode and when you stable for a couple years. but you always have to do it with the help of your pdoc.

What you mean by one episode? Pleaes

You’ve only been psychotic once

If you’ve been diagnosed with schizophrenia you’ve more than likely had more than one episode(because that’s what the diagnosis calls for), so the answer to your question is probably not. Schizophrenia does not just “end” because you’ve been taking your medication for awhile. It’s generally considered a lifelong condition.

I got it only once i think my twin dont drink alcohol and took risperdal and stopped it without any problems and he live and sleep very well and normal

Have you been diagnosed with some form of psychosis or schizophrenia? Your title and original post suggest you have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. If you have just had one psychosis they can try taking you off meds. If you have schizophrenia, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it’s a lifelong condition.

Are you diagnosed by a professional?
What’s your diagnosis?

If you had a psychosis brought on by street drugs then there is a likelihood that you can try to get off antipsychotics eventually. If you have Schizophrenia you are likely stuck with antipsychotic drugs for life. We seem to have a language barrier here. The concept is not that complicated.
