My mindset is starting to change

I’m ignoring the neighbors and people who yell at me in public. I got called gay while spending the day with my mom. IDGAF. Homophobes. Not gay.but I love gay people and trans folks. I feel honored to be called all those names. I don’t get upset about it. Life’s too short for others bs. I. Hoping perphenazine helps again. Just wanted to vent.

A lady walked up to me one day and said those people are dead inside. I believe it.

I have a little statement I tell myself. I would much rather wonder why people like me than to wonder why they don’t.
Some people are toxic to be around.

I hope this keeps working for you @roxanna. It’s good to come up with any rational plan that will make you happier and get some relief.

woaaahhh… I got called gay at the mall last Friday, and heard other things. I’m not against gays at all, it was just weird hearing this person standing in line talking about me and my boyfriend. When I was in a different US state. My boyfriend heard nothing of what she said. How much perphenazine are they giving you? do you take another AP as well?

I focus on nature too, cant look anyone in the eye…

Yeah I don’t care anymore about being called names. People in my town are ■■■■ starters. So it’s best to ignore them.

I used to take 12mg too but I also had 40mg Zyprexa along with it. Its good they are starting off slow, so if you get symptoms, theres room for increase

I just got off of clozaril because of the heavy side effects. I took zyprexa years ago. Had akathisia with it. It works for some folks.

I didn’t like it, I thought I was dieing every day, and voices made me not want to go in public, than I started losing my sense of the surroundings around me, couldn’t hold a conversation, would forget what people were saying if they talked directly to me. It made me sleep like 12-14hrs too.

:frowning: hugs. Youre having a tough time…I had a voice asking someone “now what is she doing?”. Might have been asking Duane my voice. I wasn’t doing anything. What kind of voices do you have?

I hear my aunt that passed away sometimes, and in public it used to be this one specific voice, but now it’s people that I run into who can read my mind. I hear stuff stuck on repeat, and if I’m not stable even after meds that are supposed to work, I’ll hear stuff that hinders my drawing abilities and thoughts in my head. Those ones aren’t as loud. I had a long car trip and I kept hearing on Thursday, the woman who I was with was sitting in the back seat talking to herself, and then when I looked back she wasn’t. Then I blocked my ears without music in my headphones and her singing along. So my voices are all different sorts of loudness, and making sense. Too much stimulation makes them so much worse

Perphenazine is a good med,
Wish you get advantage of it,
