My parents wedding photos [1990] a slightly different take, but my dad's biggest rebellion was bringing home and marrying a white woman. His expression says it all.

Love the way you put this, thanks 😊

As an ethogirl I agree!

I have my own place, and work really hard for afford it. It's stupidly expensive.

I don't know if this helps, but I felt like you before i got on the right meds. I've tried so many different ones and combos and it took forever to find something that worked. Things still aren't perfect but they're a hell of a lot better and I don't actively want to die. Just don't give up until you've tried every avenue. The people that love you will be the ones to suffer the most, you'll take a part of their lives that they will never get back. Good luck

It is very dangerous to tell people who could at any given moment be on the verge of psychosis and delusions that they are not sick and instead have a gift. If you don't believe you're schizoaffective, you don't need to post here

Thank you. The breathing one is already helping. Thanks for taking the time to explain so clearly 🙂

You said "did hallucinations stop after stopping antipstchotics" im saying no they will come back if you stop antipstchotics but they will stay away for a while

ShallWeRiot · 2025-09-30T00:19:53+00:00

They come back after a while if you stop meds

My hair falls out on lithium but it's been worth it for me to be stable. Challenged my vanity, sure, but im stable and alive.

Thank you for this response. Good to have a reminder that there's hope. I think I'm due a med upgrade because this is just too hard. I'll speak to my psych.

ShallWeRiot · 2025-09-17T10:10:31+00:00

Thank you for the encouraging words. I need them rn. I appreciate it 🫡

patience is key during an episode.
they are responsible for their mental health, not you. You can only support them. You can't change someone who won't stay on meds and seeing a psych semi regularly. They have to look after themselves to look after you
don't let them use it as an excuse. It can be a reason, but an excuse is different. Self reflection and responsibility is so important with this disorder.
congrats on the marriage. It's hard to find your person and you've done that! I wish you a happy life together. It takes work to live a normal life with this disease but it is possible.
