I just had a recent hike in my meds

It seems to have worked for the most part, so I voted 7

Thanks @Bowens @Joker. I’ve been on my current dose for a year now. I have occasional bouts with mild delusions and few if any hallucinations, so I voted a 7.

The only one I can’t stand is paranoia, and I am not have any of that at all.

They did education about schizophrenia in the mental hospital I was staying in. Being educated takes away your own wonder or uncertainty and replaces it with a generally accepted placeholder, but not the truth. Was it helpful? No.

Thanks @Halozination. I learned more outside the hospital than in.

I have some positive symptoms, like a single voice and random paranoia, but it’s been better since I started clozapine a year ago. I used to hear 4 voices and was always behaving weirdly or inappropriately. My suicidal ideation has gone way down, too. My negative symptoms have improved a little, but not as noticable.

I just hear voices on meds, but I’m maxed out on the Invega.

I typically only hear one voice but it’s not constant and very quiet. Sometimes I slip into paranoia. My delusions aren’t nearly as bad as they used to be. Overall I feel pretty stable these days but I keep my life extremely low on stress.
