Other than alcohol, what are your ways of managing psychosis? Which antipsychotic(s) are you on and are they helping you? What about their side effects?
Thanks.

Currently I'm on Clozpaine for my psychosis which works very well overall. I still hear voices though. My usual coping mechanisms are playing games or watching TV or listening to music.

I'm also on venlafaxine and mirtazapine for anxiety.

ALcohol for me boosts my mood, but at the same time I don't want to keep drinking all the time.
