I'm not smoking. I was given an antipsychotic. I've been on abilify for about a month though of course the dosage was upped since then (when I had my dying delusion.) Initially, for the first few weeks I was home though, I was on nothing at all except the 1 clonazepam in the morning and 1 at night.
I am still somewhat delusional, and I can't stop seeing "signs" that everything I thought was true everywhere. I don't think I've hallucinated at all recently it's just I keep seeing things happen and being like "that's part of it I know it!" The delusions are however interwoven with depression at my inability to do my familial and social duties properly. I have experienced so many delusions I don't know if I would even feel it if one or two went away.
