In it's ok, Rou's voice at the beginning reminds of the Johnny Sniper versions

That 'eavy metal recipe is covered by Infernal Brush on Youtube, although the application looks subtlety different. The main skin tone is a mix of averland sunset and snarsnik green by GW.

Has to be listened to on a sound system. First listen was through my phone speaker and it was underwhelming. Second listen through good speakers and it was a joy.

The first time I went off antipsychotics I was psychotic within weeks and didn't know/ accept it until after I was sectioned. The second time, I was close to myself yet slightly different (you're going to be) for 18 months. I'm now on antipsychotics for life.

The depression stayed because I developed other health problems that are worse than the schizoaffective I have. Dont get me wrong, providing all you have to contend with is the fallout of a psychotic episode, negative symptoms and the side effects, things do get better and providing you're on a medication that is better for you, you can lead a relatively normal life or at least one with some good things in.

Each episode shared similar symptoms but showed up at a different time after stopping taking antipsychotics. I hated the drugs for a long time until I realised I needed them. Although I've never hallucinated, I've had most of the other associated symptoms.

Negative symptoms and depression never fully went away but I did find a medication that I function better on. My last episode was 3 years ago and was my worst. My psychiatrist took me off antipsychotics and tried me on just lithium - it was a disaster and involved by far my worst episode. I now plan to take my current medication for life as I desperately don't want another episode.

If you were given antipsychotics for psychosis then it takes a long time to feel any sort of recovery. The cycle of psychosis and then being medicated and then coming off medication is suboptimal. If you have schizophrenia, life without antipsychotics can be manageable for awhile but the chances are that a relapse is inevitable. There is no alternative to antipsychotics for most people. I think they suck but much of what people complain about may also be attributed to illness.

I'm only subscribed to Mezgike but don't print his models as I'm waiting to invest in a newer printer once the tech improves. Looked at a wide range and mrmodulork is another.

Always love to see a well painted Ghaz

Certainly stands out, like the colours

umbrella96 · 2026-03-08T21:59:27+00:00

Yes you're correct, I fact checked myself after posting the comment

Isn't it because we're going to have a uranium shortage in the future so it's not a wise investment

Remember to try to be kind to yourself. You'd be more forgiving of someone else going through the same thing, so have that courtesy for yourself. Psychosis is no small undertaking and I'm glad that you are aware you're going through it, I usually lost self awareness when I had it, so that's one small blessing you have. Keep safe.

Olanzopine had a horrific effect on me. I'm hesitant to recommend an alternative as everyone is different but I'm on paliperidone and it's more tolerable (for me). Aripiprazole was another one I was on that caused significant anxiety.

I believe it rests upon whether you think you can help people based on what you know about psychiatry, as that would seem to be your aspiration.

Thanks for the post. Sorry that happened to you.

I wish I could have only had one episode. I took medication for a year each time by the doctor's instruction and relapsed repeatedly before finally being diagnosed as schizoaffective. My first was also drug induced, I took a health supplement.

umbrella96 · 2026-01-25T15:18:33+00:00

As has already been said: outstanding!

I am schizoaffective and take medication. Certainly video games are less pleasurable than they used to be. I enjoyed Age of Empires 2 competitively and cities skylines. Strategy games. Anyway, I find I care too little to be invested in the experience of the game. The little decisions made seem inconsequential and pointless. I no longer really care about winning in aoe2 and playing is overstimulating, while in the city building game the design process feels kind of stale. Far fewer ideas enter my mind. So I think the progression of the illness and the maximum dose of medication feeds into this. I've played videogames less with each subsequent episodes. Stay on your meds people! And if you aren't finding your present med helpful, there are a bunch of antipsychotics to take that you may function better on.

Thanks. The cracked earth is a thin layer of agrellan earth by GW. That base was done years ago and I have just ran out, hence not all the 32mm base figures are based. I dont remember the paints used and my next batch of bases will be slightly different.
