I have been pretty much the same since 2015. I have come along way though. I still have a fair amount of troubles but I am stable.

My body has got more used to my medication and the side effects have lessened, and the medication also works well. Also, I live by myself in my own place now. So better.

I voted the same. The only difference is I started taking a supplement that helps me tolerate abilify better. So that’s all that’s changed really.

Worse. Last year this time my meds were working great and I wasn’t having a ton of side effects. Now my side effects are getting to be overwhelming. At least the meds are working.

My head pain is getting much better, but I’m still not making money or going out much. Also getting bad arthritis now. Win some, lose some.

Same routine for the last 7 years, since i gave up my job.
With my job i had the same routine back than.
When i got diagnosed i did school and reschoolingprogramms and apprenticeship which was exciting in my 20’s.

I guess better. Exponentially that is. Still got a lot to go to get better.

In terms of relationships I’m not sure.
It’s not easy to tell.

I’m doing much better. This time last year, I was knee deep in delusions and tormented by voices. Now I still have voices, but they don’t speak as often and they’re nowhere near as intense as they once were.

I am trying to get back to normal, and I am back on zyprexa in a much higher dose. My doctor took me off meds in October, I became an extremely insane person and spent a month in one hospital and eight days in a second hospital. I went 35 years between hospitalizations by never missing my AP. So yes I am worse than a year ago, but there is hope.

I’m definitely doing it better than a year ago. My medication has been adjusted, and i have to say this is honestly the best i’ve ever felt in a long, long time.

I’m doing better. I started an anti depressant that has helped and moved back in with my mum closer to family. I am starting voluntary work next week at a farm shop close to where I am now living and currently waiting on my driving licence to get back into driving so I can be a bit more independent
