Sometimes people with mental illness and poverty get caught in really horrible situations. I’ve been in really bad living arrangements where I felt trapped and couldn’t escape. Hang on, nothing lasts forever and there is hope that things will change for the better.
What kind of meds are you taking now, pansdisease? You may need an adjustment of meds either by increasing the dose or by changing to other meds. Three months ago I started to have fearful delusional thoughts and I increased my meds by 200 mg. (It’s an adjustment from 200 mg Amisulpride to 400 mgAmisulpride) It worked for me. Being stable for one month, I gradually reduced it. First I tried 300mg. It was good. Now I am on 250mg. Still good…I have been diagnosed with Sz for 8 years, and have tried out 5 different antipsychotics. Now I have learned to handle crisis by adjusting the dose.
