When she took her meds she was fine. I know some people do not like meds. Meds saved my life from my debilitating psychosis. My sister took her meds and had a job, went to school, had many friends, lived on her own. When she stopped taking then she lost all of that and is basically a toddler. A 30 year old woman. Is basically a toddler.

Without.meds, what then do you suggest for severe psychosis? ????
