What codes are you talking about?
I obsessively look for codes in conversation using rhymes, like a subtext to it. People tell me there’s nothing I’m missing but then it looks like there insulting me and being violent mean and vulgar in the perfect rhymes I instantly come up with in my head.
Well, sounds like not being medicated at all would be best for that. But I don’t recommend it. I think they better the med the less you’ll feel compelled to look for codes. Healthy people don’t try to find secret codes in everything.

I do think that. but I also know I’ve been told it’s my brain doing that and that’s not normal or an experience of other people. I’m torn sort of. because part of me wants to get off meds and be a hermit in the woods and part of me wants to try to find a good medication. zyprexa is supposed to be a great med… but if I take even 10mg of zyprexa I get worse and really strange thoughts. and then I start thinking that the doctors are giving me meds to make me go crazy.
have you had this problem before? what meds have worked for you?
