hi people, how are you? 
the meds work for me every day. but theres no miracles of course. its me who struggles still. I started to make sport at my house but I spent the last 15 years without movement. I am scared to be honest… and I dont feel fine mentally when I make sport, its to this point yeah… somebody here who knew the degradation to this point? its such a pity that I wasn’t put on meds earlier. its me who is guilty in a way. ok, I was just scared before of some severe mi but now its really hard. I am like an elephant…
you lost both of your legs? how is it possible? wow, sorry… its terrible. but me I am in bad shape too because of my laziness and my depression over the years. I am scared cause now I am really like a disabled person…
They just curled up and stopped working. I need to walk with the aid of a roller. Latuda has done this to me I don’t know any other way. Maybe that article is right about shorter life expectancy for people with major psychotic disorders. I’m TRAPPED!
oh my god! the meds are hard I know… yeah, me too I am trapped, you are not alone. these days I find myself that I accept more my illness so this is a big progress for me. sometimes its a question of survival… and ill have to continue living like this. me without meds, I feel like body hallucinations. I have some body pains without meds but its mental in my case. now I just try to move more in order to get better physically but its tough. I dont know how I am gonna to make sex one day wow 
… my muscles are too released now, I almost fart when I make physical effort… sorry for the details but its sad all this. we are on the same boat gorilla…
That’s not very nice to lie about losing your legs.
I love your honesty @Anna1

yeah @Samp… thanks 
but can I make it better one day? I am still comparing to some alcoholics who spent years in drinking. or comparing to junkies… the damages on my body are big I guess… I am afraid… I even learn how to walk outside. i rush fast outside because of my paranoia but my feet are suffering etc etc… somebody here who was forced to work on himself physically after the illness and the meds? its something 15 years of inactivity, i should look like a monster now…
I meant the use of my legs. I sometimes cbnot walk with these legs because of the stiffness
No, you said you lost both legs. It’s clear as anything.
Could be a typo. Lost use in both legs
It’s weird, but when I was going to high school, my legs were often freezing up as well. Walking to school and back home was no fun at all. It is sort of the same as what you see in the movie “Awakenings”… This was based on the true story of a doctor’s extraordinary work in the Sixties with a group of catatonic patients he finds languishing in a Bronx hospital.
Anyhow, the patients were frozen motionless, but if you played some music, the right music, they would come back to life and start moving again.
In my case, I had to change my frame of mind to get my legs moving again, just like music changed their frame of mind.
