It's really encouraging to hear that everyone is doing better!

I think I am doing better now, too, but I wouldn't have been able to say that a month ago. Everything has just improved so much in the past month, with my new job and new life.

I'm doing the same. Confused and trying to cope with it all.
I've given up ever being well again. Sheesh!

i still have paranoid beliefs that i dont know are true or not but i believe to be like being gangstalked. but i try to not let those things trouble me. its hard though cause im troubled everyday by them. and i still have my beliefs on conspiracies. i guess its about keeping them in check. idk.

Just on meds , especially APs , those drugs are largely there to stop specific symptoms , hallucinations especially , you still got to do all that positive stuff to keep your mood in order.

For example if a healthy person , non sz , started to think and do stuff that was not a bit positive , then they too would end up depressed and anxious , its just the way our brains work.

The problem with APs is that they can make people feel a bit off as a result of them so that can add to the problems , the trick is to use them with a specific goal in mind , I.e to stop hallucinations , then to quantify their negative effects , by saying this is the price I pay , and then after that to do all the positive stuff so as to maintain your mood , (just like everyone else does)....

NO, I'm still trying to understand what is going on with me. I'm still waiting on a doctor that will pay attention to what I am saying. I am still hoping for a therapist. I still want to know if I am seeing ghost or are my eyes failing me. I am still waiting on neuro doc to tell me withour reservation that I am in fact having simple partial complex seizures, I am still waiting on someone to explain the results of a neurocognitive test I took a few months ago, I am still waiting for my docs to treat the depression and not just sleep issues.

I am still waiting for the feeling of purposely being ignored by friends and loved ones to go away. I'm still waiting on husband to acknowledge that he also hears the sounds that I hear, and occassionally someone calling my name. I'm still waiting for me, myself to stop talking to I. I'm still waiting on the feeling that something bad is going to happen will go away or those that I tell would believe me.

No, no changes here. As a matter of fact, I think I am worse and am getting pretty darn tired of waiting. The only solid change is that I don't dream to much now...meds I guess.

Diagnosis? Hmm, bipolar schizoeffective - simple complex partial seizures - and heart/health issues

Definitely. Last year I was inpatient twice. I'm feeling pretty good this year
