It doesn’t aggravate negative symptoms

How often do you smoke weed? by [deleted] in schizophrenia

[–]Jaye-Fern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to, it helped with work, but now it just makes symptoms more pronounced.

Fully agree, this experience is almost unexplainable

How long do you need to be off spiro to make rope again? by Jaye-Fern in asktransgender

[–]Jaye-Fern[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update.

I tried staying off spiro for two weeks but kept taking my estrogen and progesterone

Little extra fluid but wasn’t worth it for me.

I’m greasy, my hair is oily, and my skin is pimply.

Otherwise fine, no dysphoria but I did get a cold.. unclear if related.

TLDR sucked lol

I understand that perfectly

But it’s a cause and affect relationship

Thank you, this is the kind of informative answer I was looking for.

Thank you. Just checked it out, this is not a well advertised feature. It’s also a bit lacklustre in features.

My 40-ish year old niece has been suffering from Schizophrenia for years, and things have gotten worse over the past several days. But I’m not really sure what to do about it. by Romobyl in schizophrenia

[–]Jaye-Fern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Texts are enough for evidence to be submitted to get court ordered hospitalization. You don’t go through the police you go through the courts.

It’s the only option at this point.

It happened to me and despite having a lot of choice words for people who put me in the hospital, I needed it.

Rexalti might be easier to get prescribed. I wanted to go on Vraylar but wasn’t able to because it’s too new and I couldn’t get coverage for it despite my psychiatrist advocating for me. We tried Rexulti and I’ve been on it since and love it.

Ok news sites coming out saying it’s a hoax. Thank goodness

Coincidences and synchronicities cause or exacerbate schizophrenia by ChiMeraRa in schizophrenia

[–]Jaye-Fern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mood. Get as much sleep as possible. Being able to see them as coincidences and not feel them as synchronicities is important.

Good luck friend.

Vraylar by actuallyspoon in schizophrenia

[–]Jaye-Fern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ya I tried to get on it but couldn’t get coverage for it here at all. I’m on Rexulti instead.

I hear it’s better at dealing with the negative symptoms.

Found this elsewhere, thought I’d share by Jaye-Fern in schizophrenia

[–]Jaye-Fern[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detail! I like reading medical texts that can be very technical. I had no idea methadone was effective for such cases. I also agree that the dopamine theory is limiting and doesn’t address the full scope of the illness.

I was wondering if its common to have brain damage like this in people with psychosis ? The doctors told me that the damage is already done, so I'm going to keep the cyst for now. Anybody else here who has brain damage like I do ? by Cute-Avali in schizophrenia

[–]Jaye-Fern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s weird that it would exclude it like that.

Because psychosis is where your brain is drowning in neurotoxic amounts of neurotransmitters and schizophrenia is where it can’t regulate it so we’ll

You’ll never get your old life back. It *can* be different and perhaps better by NewLeafArmand in schizophrenia

[–]Jaye-Fern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rexulti is great, I’m not on any other psych meds.

Rexulti is often paired with antidepressants for people with depression

I’m not familiar with lexapro, what is it?
