Neg symptoms worse time of day

When are your ‘negative symptoms’ worse? Mine are from meds antipsychotics, I think that’s what it is, or schizotypal. Meds probably. Or from aging early… Nurse helping me. Mine are way worse in morning until like 1pm. I can do nothing but sit in silence until then, completely stuck.
Anyway when are your the worst? Time of day I mean.

Perfectly normal to have your negatives worse in the mornings. This is usually the time for most people.

It fluctuates for me.

Negative symptoms can be hard to treat, but fixing your sleeping schedule can definitely help with the process.

Hope this helps.

I’m the worst in the morning. Sometimes I struggle to even get out of bed. In the evening and night I’m more lively

Definitely in the morning. Things get easier as the day goes on.

Thanks @anon57786250 Vyvanse has helped me and switching to Abilify seemed to be better anyhow. Maybe I am depressed and don’t know it, that can cause neg type symptoms. They suck. And yeah way worse in morning. My nurse is helping me but no matter the strategies it’s just not working. I hate it. Am a shell.

Huh interesting. I figured I am a little more lively in evening because everyone is around so I am forced to go with flow of fam life. That too. Thanks everyone. Jeepers I felt alone in all this stuff before I came here.

No worries,

Funny clips on YouTube always cheer me up.

Slow music helps as well.

Pets do too, if you have any.

My negative symptoms are definitely worse in the morning. I can’t get a thing done but prayer up until about 730 pm when I come alive and get a few things done. Mine are from both my illness and my meds.

I think my problem is depression related. I never know when it will hit. I find that it comes in cycles. I rapid cycle with more time depressed. Hypomania is as high as I’ve been.

Does anyone else feel this way?

Don’t know if mine is depression related due to bp1. Don’t feel depressed at all but not ruling anything out. Someone told me that depression can cause neg type symptoms

I am different again on this :confused:
Mine are worse in the evening, cause I get tired from the day even though, that I don’t do much through it… I also take my meds in the evenings, which contributes to negatives. Plus, its a lonely time the evening for me since a long time… I am all alone in the house, all the stores are closed, plus I avoid going out in the evening…
I sometimes sit on the couch, smoking cigarettes for hours in the evening just listening to the radio lol… The problem is that my evenings were like this since a kiddo, maybe I should keep the hope, that even this will pass…
Stay strong! :slight_smile:
