In other news I'm really sick of being on this depot and having to go get it. I was told I'd only be on it short term and it's nearly been a year since I started getting it. I know I'm a hell of a lot more stable now on it but still, my cognitive abilities are horrendous now. I used to be quite bright and quick, now I can barely hold a conversation in real life. I'm good at talking on here because I can think about what I'm going to say and take time to delete what I don't.

I know Schizophrenia is a chronic condition that required meds for a long if not indefinite time but does anyone here with a predisposition to psychosis and a history of psychosis, without schizophrenia, know how long they've been or are going to be on meds?
I don't have a sz dx I've had 2 breaks----I've been sick for 4 years now around 3 of those have been on meds. Typically they give you a med free trial if you have been stable for 1-2 years, I don't think you've been stable that long but maybe when you are they will give you a trial off meds?
