OK so 7 months are you still on meds? It's taken me two years and now I'm slowly tapering off. I didn't realize how much the meds were suppressing me. I'm finding my old personality underneath. So my pdoc wanted 6 months with no voices or delusions before he would even let me try to go off but that was too soon for me, I started having mood problems when I lowered the dose. Things are much better now I'm on 5mg of abilify that's like a depression dose. Seriously for two years I kept thinking I was going to have to change jobs...but I've always loved science so why? It was the meds. Apparently there can be cognitive deficits and motivtion issurs which occur because the dopamine levels can get too low in one part of your brain while being at the correct level in another so in order to block psychosis you have to cause a dopamine deficit in other parts of your brain...so the parts that make you witty are being sucked dry. Anyway this is mostly theoretical and based on personal experience so your mileage will vary. You have to stay on the meds until its safe but try to get off as soon as possible.
