Took the ol' sanity test and scored alright I guess.....said I have major self esteem and depression issues...and so forth.....but didnt pick up my schizophrenia as a major issue..must be because I am on meds.......weird...but now I will take this thing once a month or so to see how it is going I suppose......hopefully there will be progress.

well good to see that the schizophrenia aspects are under control for the test so now you can work on the others of depression and low self esteem which pretty much go hand and hand and feed off of one another.

There is hope and I would bring up the depression issue to your pdoc when you see them again.

take care, your frend, kk101

i scored a 164. it did not seem to show the schizophrenia as high as i thought it might. the depression and phobias category are right on though.

im not on medication, well not a psy med. just xanax ambien elavil. really should get risperdal again...

I would get on something for schizophrenia......it could be festering beneath the surface and be your main problem or be a side problem, either way , it needs handling.........trying it......or abilify.....that is what I take.....30mg.....try it.

I have taken all the atypicals and none of them work for my schizophrenia....Symptoms too severe so pdoc has me on 25 mg of Haldol a day. that seems to work the best so far. still have voices and a sometimes a commetary going on but it is at a level that I can handle.
