Can I ask what symptoms your meds help you with most?

Voices and pacing for hours thinking everyone is out to get me

The last time I was unmedicated I was in a drug research hospital and I was actually on a small dose of zyprexa but not enough. The last day of the study it was getting unbearable. I felt like people were hitting my body and head repeatedly. I laid in bed as still as I could because it hurt even more when I moved.

And your meds help control that?

Yes I have stopped hearing voices for the most part and no longer pace

I get depressed and anxious, agitated, fearful, have persecutory delusions, and suicidal thoughts.

One of my psychiatrists wants me on the Invega Sustenna injection. My insurance covers it. I’m sorry yours doesn’t. It’s a good med.

How do you get your dr to put you on it?

I just asked her if I can switch to an injection and she asked why and I said I thought that would be best and she agreed and said she wanted me to take Invega Sustenna injections.
