I feel like I’ve just finally reached a sweet spot in life again. I really hope nothing ever happens to where I have to go off of rexulti. I’m amazed at how different life is right now you guys, I literally have like no symptoms. I think I’ve talked to the demons twice in the past 3 weeks and it’s been like a sentence or two. That’s it.
I just feel normal and I haven’t felt this way in a long long time, since Risperidone and Zoloft. Wow. Keep fighting to find the right medication combo guys that’s all I can say, that’s probably the most major key to recovery.
I’m pretty stable too. Good you found a good med combo. How much do you attribute it to meds? Rather than all the great things in your life happening right now? Well either way that’s great and I hope it all continues for you!!
The mood stability I attribute more to the fact that I have minimal stress in my life right now because I almost went into a depressive episode actually when I got accepted into nursing school because it was so much to deal with all at once. Next time I see my doctor I’m going to ask to go up doses on my depakote because it only works if I’m not stressed. The psychosis stability I 100% attribute to the medication because normally I have symptoms constantly throughout the day every day even when I’m not that stressed but I’ve had like nothing.
That’s good. I’m on really good medications too. Despite getting in a car crash totaling my car and having hernia surgery 6 days later, and an allergic reaction to meds last night I’ve managed to stay in good control of myself. If I were not on meds or enough meds I might have gone crazy in such a week. But i managed to survive alright. I should count my blessings. I feel dissatisfied with life but I should sit back and think at least I’m doing ok and in one piece. It’ll be another week till it fully sinks in I think.
I’m going thru a stable patch now too. Was suffering severe depression and voices and was suicidal. This was the whole of september and into October. Was in hospital then too. But from mid October I got better and better until now I have no depression or voices or suicidal feeling at all.
Wow its wonderful isn’t it? To feel so stable? Enjoying it while it lasts. Must stick firm to my meds as it’s in times like these I get temptations to come off them. Can’t afford to relapse again as I have to be strong to help hubby and try get my driving license.
