Do they make you feel normal too? When I’m off my meds lights are brighter and hallways are longer…

I take invega 6 mg and no I don’t feel normal. I still hear voices and my judgment is not that good. I still see things occasionally but I must say it’s better than not being on medicine.
I don’t know if they make me feel normal… but they do make me feel better and more grounded.
I’m on 80 mg Latuda and 50 mg Seroquel with Xanax again… and soon to be on mood stabilizers.
There are a few break through symptoms but it’s not as unmanageable and unraveling.
I do know I feel like I have better short term memory when I’m on my meds… I feel calmer and can get a full sentence out.
My meds have stabilised me and I have practically been symptom-free for a month now, feeling very normal indeed!
Different med’s leave my system in different ways. When I don’t take my Geodon and Seroquel I’m more volatile emotionally. I’m learning again and again that I need to stay on my med’s.
Yep, I love my meds they make it possible for me to interact with the world on a daily basis.

No they don’t make me feel normal. Before my onset, I was a very overachieving person. Now not so much. What my meds do is make me feel better. Before meds I was living in total fear, a delusional mad man.
I wouldn’t say normal but they make me feel a lot better.
I don’t feel normal with my medicines, only sometimes. Not in the inside (I feel kind of I am constantly sick, like a psychosomatic effect, nervous, anxious, mixed up and so on), and also not in the outside (I can’t communicate well, I don’t have a good judgment, I feel like I 'm different, I am afraid of maybe telling something abnormal, etc)
