Went to the doctors today and received my invega 234mg dosage to keep me from falling back into psychosis. I've been stable for 4-5 months now and things are as normal as they could be.

I'm still not talking as swiftly and as smart as I once did. But I am cognitively aware and give educated responses. I believe it's just a matter of time once again before things get back to what I consider truly normal. I have gained about 20lbs since being on this medication, but if that's what it costs for a stable mind I guess I can manage. Still wondering who else is searching for normalcy after psychotic episodes. If you're around it would be good to hear your story.

Overall life is well and should be starting up work soon for my parents docking company. Still pursuing my dream of being a broadcaster even with this so-called disability. Just thought I would check in.

Great job!!!!!!!!! It's such an amazing feeling to reach the point you have!! I still struggle with watching what I say and that's difficult. I tend to say dumb things a lot. Things I wouldn't say.
I Just got over a grandios mania. Didn't really affect anyone but me however I did some pretty weird crap. Looking back is strange. Seeing the pictures I drew that had so much meaning then is weird. I'm like.... What the hell is this?!
Hardest part for me is just pulling myself out of that reality. I crashed into a depressive state not to long ago and finally accepted I really do have bipolar.
Before, I believed I was healed overnight so I stopped therapy and my meds.
My depressive state was terrible before the grandios mania. I actually took myself to the ER after months of performing extremely dangerous acts. It was the worst it had ever gotten.
Doing great now though!!

Congrats to you!!
