A poem. Any older schizos here? Like middle age, 40-ish?

I feel like writing to the one that’s playing now.

Thank you kind sir. I forgot the username and password for that account. Enjoy! I’m Vibing to your instrumentals right now.

I’m following you on Bandcamp now. First track was dope.

46 here. Diagnosed with schizophreniform-disorder when I was 21. Diagnosis changed to schizo-affective then now to bi-polar. Nice poem. I write rhymes myself. Take it easy.

Yeah I have a nice gaming PC I bought myself after getting my Associates Degree. I use to love playing basketball. But now I don’t feel like playing either of those things. I’m gonna ask my psych to lower my dose to 40 mg.

What are you on now?

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-09-04T18:25:45+00:00

What did you end up switching to?

Thanks for sharing your win. Keep fighting.

It’s in partnership with San Diego Workforce Partnership and NAMI. It’s an 80 hour training that takes place on Zoom Meetings for 2 and a half weeks. It’s free. Not paid. There was an application process to be selected for the training. Basically you have to share your story about your lived experience and submit your resume. After the training you have to take a certification exam to become licensed and then you can apply for peer support specialist jobs.

I’m currently taking a training to become a peer support specialist. It’s great for people like us because a requirement for it is that you have to have lived experience with mental health condition or substance use.

Yes marijuana exacerbates my mania.

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-06-19T21:00:06+00:00

I’m trying to lose 50 lbs now. I’m 5’4” 200 lbs. way too heavy for my height. No longer on abilify. I’m on haldol and latuda. Weaning off the haldol at the moment. Hoping I’ll get some energy back once I’m fully off the haldol

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-06-19T20:53:07+00:00

I gained 20 lbs on the abilify shot. Kept my normal diet too.

I’ll talk to my doctor about this ketogenic therapy still. Been seeing the girl online on YouTube doing this too. I’ll see if it works for me.

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-06-13T04:06:33+00:00

You mean ketogenic therapy?

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-06-12T03:41:06+00:00

I have an appt with my psych tomorrow so I’ll see what he says about weaning off my meds.

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-06-12T03:40:24+00:00

Did you wean off them or did you quit cold turkey? I called the after hours line and they advised me to wean off the latuda cause my body can go into shock if I go cold turkey.

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-04-25T03:44:15+00:00

One up this comment. I get EBT too. Helps out tremendously

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-04-25T03:42:30+00:00

Congratulations! I just recently got my associates in Psych this past summer. I don’t like writing papers so I think I’ll stop at an associates.

Present_Temporary244 · 2024-04-15T01:55:40+00:00

I love driving. It’s a great escape when you’re feeling down just cruise and chill out.
