Does anyone find that when things are going great, and you are having no symptoms, it feels strange?
I'm so used to being in a manic state, a delusional or depressive state...I don't know...
With these meds working so well...I don't feel like 'me'.

I'm sorry Labyssum, I don't have any experience with meds but I can appreciate that if your life has been one way for a period of time and no longer is that way, it can feel "off".

You say that the meds are working well so that tells me you feel they've been helpful to you. Perhaps you just need a bit of time to adjust to this new version of "normalcy".

You're right. I'll just wait it out and see if it becomes...more comfortable.

I remeber feeling worse off when I started to feel better because I was lonely a lot with less of my voices. It got better in time though. I'm actually working to get back to that.

I feel the same without hallucinations. It is weird not to have them.

But, you get used to everything. 'Normal' doesn't feel right...
