Honestly, that's how I feel as well. I really would like to go off the medication as it makes me feel a bit disconnected from my emotions, but I will openly admit that I am simply afraid to have psychosis again. Not because of the event itself, as it wasn't as traumatic as you might think, but because of the disruption and harm it causes to my life and the life of those who I care about. I don't take the pills for me, I take the pills for them.

You're simply retarded. I read all your posts and I can't form a different conclusion to this. Nothing you say adds up or makes any sense. It's truly no wonder you fell for the scam.

It is true that I am not a wise person, but no need to attack anon. What would you recommend in your wisdom then?

I would recommend trying to apply some logic in your life. Maybe read philosophy. It's not that the stuff you read is true but it helps getting your brain to work by seeing different perspectives and encourage internal debate. You have to learn how not let any random emotion overcome your judgement. You take these shit pills for others and that's simply disgusting. Learn to mind your temper and then no need for this medication. Psychosis isn't unnatural or bad either, that's a straight up lie. It simply means that you have thoughts which you can't reconcile and by taking these meds you simply don't allow your mind to overcome the barriers as it should. Human beings aren't untinking robots for fucks sake, throw that medication to the trash bin.

Hey, I was on minimal Vraylar for about 2 years. Before that I was on a higher dose. I found it very useful at the time. I've been completely off of it for about 3 months.
Now I feel certain symptoms coming back, but they feel more manageable at the moment. I may go back on it at some day. Thanks for sharing, and I'm sorry you received some hate on this thread.


I was also hospitalized. Very mixed feelings about it, but ultimately I consider it as having helped me overall. Also, good luck with your Vraylar, I had similar hesitations with it, so I truly hope you have a responsive health team that can adjust your dosage until you take exactly as little as you need. Thanks for sharing as well.


These things aren't mutually exclusive my friend. You can take meds in order to have a better functioning grasp while you do your internal debating and discovery.

This was a terrible thread. So much hatred out there. I'm sending all my love to those actually affected by schizophrenia, and I hope we can all respect that we are on different parts of our journey. That means we all need different things. Listen, I know how hellish mental health treatment can be. But there is probably a good balance spot for you between 'Meds are the only thing keeping me sane' and 'Meds are evil mind zombifiers.' 
Truly best of luck to everyone here.

That one schizo left how ''anonymous'' many replies?

This is the first guy advocating for ''meds'' that doesn't sound like that 1 person doing the rounds. I've already said there are probably specific use cases for meds but the reality is they are overprescribed to a point of national health hazard, which is, really, really bad.
