I take Geodon 160mg total a day...it works very well for my visual and hearing things...but the thing is....when things are going good and have been for awhile I feel like I dont need it anymore....then slowly I start having paranoia and the other stuff comes back...I KNOW in my head that things are going good because I AM taking the meds and they get bad again when I dont...but I still do it anyway....Why? Im I the only one here that does that or am I not alone... I just wanna be a "normal" mom and wife...I HATE HATE HATE having to take all the meds. I just feel like maybe "this" time it will go away....but thus far its not.

I do that a lot as well - I think that because I'm feeling ok that it will just stay that way, then things start getting worse again.

I wish I could come off the meds too, but I reckon I've reduced it as far as I can for the time being. But I really do hate the idea that my life is to be measured out in daily doses. No, you're not alone.

I was talking about this today with the counsellor at college, she said since it's always worse when I stop. It's unlikely to be different any other time.
