It sounds like being distrustful (and maybe oppositional) is your baseline and maybe -at this level- doesn't have to do with your psychosis --is that fair? I'm thinking that maybe therapy can help with that and with other things. Have they set up a therapist for you for when you leave? Did you already have a therapist? I think this is essential.

No one can force-feed you meds. If you don't want to take them, you're an adult and can make that decision. But if you don't, there will be a lot of drama with your support team and you'll end up back in the hospital, and you don't want either of those things, right? So your best bet is probably to take the meds, if these are your goals/what you want.

If you want a lot of drama with the support team and to end up back in the hospital, the quickest and easiest way to do that, is to not take your meds. If you don't like the side effects, you can talk to your pdoc about changing them.

Best of luck with your discharge plan.
