I take medication but when I am in a better position financially and live on my own I may decide to not take it. I do believe you can recover without medication. I was diagnosed with depression when I was 16 and I overcame that illness when I was told it was not possible. I am longer sad and depressed or appear to be at all either I started working, kept my busy with activities, made friends, etc… At 18 I was diagnosed with schizophrenia. I hear voices and often laugh at jokes or smile randomly due to thoughts/voices in my head. This is much more complicated illness and it takes a bit more effort to stop but I think it is possible. My theory is that I have to accomplish very difficult tasks, discipline myself, improve socially, get in much better shape/be healthy, get a lot smarter, make a lot more money and my mind will calm down due to so much understanding of my mind and improvement of my mind. I will be able to mentally calm down the voices and stop bad behaviors. I will be better than I ever was. Because I am a better person in some ways due to schizophrenia although there are some major drawbacks and I will improve immensely when I recover.
Recovery with out medication is not possible indeed. But the effects of thoughts, to the body shall be reduced to minimum, so normal life may possible. And all that schizophrenia is with in limit of mind and brain. I made it possible to some extent to myself. I not guarantee the relapse in future. But for me will open an option of quick treatment.
Most important thing for me is how to dominate the normal people in the field. Its all Newton law’s v/s Einstein law’s.
No recovery is not possible for me, neither on medications nor off them.
Recovery is not possible for me and life is very difficult.
I hope for miracles.

If you are lucky enough to get off meds Chance’s are really good you won’t stay off them. There is just to much to loose going through episodes. Might not even recover on meds. Im on for life it’s just to risky I’ve tried it twice already with desasterous outcomes
