What symptoms do you guys suffer from the most?

For me it is:

  1. Auditory hallucinations/delusions
  2. Social paranoia and anxiety
  3. Lack of motivation

The lack of motivation is my worst.
Don’t think I can blame Sz for anything else.

Yeah that one is pretty bad. Hard to separate from just pure laziness though.

I’ve never been lazy per se, so it’s real hard for me to sit there doing nothing, when I know I have a bunch of stuff to do.
It’s like someone took all the flavor out of life and I have absolutely zero want to do anything, and I mean ANYTHING.

for me its:
the paranoia
the depression(who makes me suicidal and angry, both)…

Depression is the most dominant for me (have bipolar-type sza). Anxiety comes with it, though; the combination of those two has caused me to miss work countless times. Between psychotic breaks my psychotic symptoms are mild, mostly negatives, though those can be hard to distinguish from symptoms of depression. I suppose paranoia would be another, as I am a rather paranoid guy, though the Haldol is helping some with that.

Yeah that combination is quite terrible. I forgot to add, intrusive thoughts should be up there.

But I just have to keep reminding myself that it isn’t real, just my schizophrenia.

  1. Avolition. I have motivation. But very hard to get started even on small tasks. It’s like my brain overestimates the energy required to do something and decides no thanks.

  2. Racing thoughts and intrusive images can be bothersome.

  3. Euphoric moods. This feels wonderful but it always feels I’m bordering on losing contact with reality. So that one worry’s me a bit.

Used to hear voices most the time but they settled down after about 5 years

My motivation is through the roof.
I have severe cognitive symptoms.
And sleep trouble, trouble with falling asleep and sleep quality.

Chronic handsomeness and untreatable, med-resistant charm.

For me, I’d say motivation, lack of emotional expression (which used to make me look cold/distant; I’ve learned to fake it ya know?), paranoia, and mood swings.

I have almost all the negative symptoms…poor me…!!!
