Welcome! I'm kind of new here as well and have found this place to be quite nice Everyone is very accepting and understanding. Part of the reason why I like it so much.

Congrats about being drug free! It's quite a challenge. I used to self medicate with drugs before I was diagnosed. Nothing too hard though. I'd drink a decent amount, smoke DMT, smoke weed, you know... stuff like that. But had to stop when I started meds and haven't done anything for almost 4 years now!

I'm a student as well! (Taking a break because I still need to fully stabilize) I was thinking of Psychology too for the longest time. It's a really cool subject! But then I discovered my love for chemistry haha.

I could never really handle the high doses of Seroquel as well. Lower doses didn't seem to help much, the higher doses helped a little but it was hard to live when on the higher dosage. So I can understand that. But I hope that you are able to get your meds in order. If you need someone to talk to my door is always open
