I’d say my pdoc, my therapist and @everhopeful have been three of the most strictly productive people towards my life. @everhopeful gets on the list after showing me to vitamin d and other things In the past.

My pdoc put me on all three meds I’m on and they work fine. No other meds worked for me from other pdocs. They like didn’t even try to help me just drug me up. This pdoc listens and knows what’s best. And listens to side affects. To some extent. And my therapist well she’s just great

My pdoc is a very sweet grandpa.
He put me on 3 aps combo and I am better than ever. He even lowered doses after I told him that for the last 20 days I have no illogical ideas or voices. We plan to lower them even more if I am stable. I trust him

My family, but especially my dad. At my worst and most psychotic he never gave up on me.
When I felt suicidal he stayed calm and spent a lot of time with me until I felt better.
He actually saved me from getting seriously beat up a couple of times too. He died about ten years ago but he was with me since I got diagnosed at age 19 until I was in my forties.
And he was a nice guy and funny and interesting and I liked just hanging around him.
The rest of my family has helped me since I was 19 too and I’m 57 now.

My family has been very helpful. I am forever grateful for mom and dads support. Sometimes take it for granted I guess.

My mom definitely. She has taken care of me when I’m so psychotic I can’t feed myself or string together a coherent sentence. That is love

My family for being there for me when I was in hospital. Not my pdoc though. My pdoc is super stubborn and won’t even consider trying different dosages of the meds I’m on. So unfair…a pdoc shouldn’t get to decide.

My husband. He has seen more than anyone, and he has endured more than anyone. He works so hard at his job, and he works even harder caring for our family.

Maybe my step dad, but really nobody has
I’m solo in this journey. Unless you count, Phil,
who has been a strong presence.

I’d say God and my parents. My parents took care of me for many years and in some ways are still taking care of me. I am thankful to have them in my life.

Cool. Sometimes wonder what people think about god. God has helped me too I believe.

My family, doctors, and benefits. I don’t think I’d be doing well without benefits. I pay rent and food so I don’t feel like a burden. My mom doesn’t work, step dad is not working and he is getting old. My dad is a hard person to deal with. My mom will never work. I’ll probably have to take care of her or my sister will, hopefully. My mom has no concept of money or time management.
My mom gives me emotional support but it’s hard because she thinks I’m delusional. Same with my dad. He thinks I’m delusional. I see him once a week.
They both think I’m schizophrenic, but my current doctor suggested bipolar but then went back to Sza for now.
I have my doubts that I’m even schizophrenic at all.

I’m with @disciple on this one.
God and my parents and my brother.
I don’t know what I’d do without them.

My family. My mental health team. One friend who really understands. I think I’m pretty fortunate.
This forum is very helpful. Many people on here are truly interested in helping others.
