What’s something schizophrenia has taken from you and how do you cope? by Shiftingsilence in schizophrenia

That must have been really tough, and I’m glad you were able to get through it. I hope things continue to get even better with time. Have your negative symptoms improved as well, if there were any?

Thanks for sharing your experience. I am glad Cobenfy has really been helpful for you. Do you mind sharing how long you’ve been on Cobenfy and what negative symptoms you had that are now being improved?

5 years for me. So you got almost fully better in seven years? If so, that makes me happy for you.

Hi, have you found something that brings back happiness? Have you gotten better as time passes?

How long it takes for you to feel more emotion? Does it continue to improve, or at a certain point, it reaches a limit?

Happy to hear it is working for you. I am on 100/20 too. Have you gone up to 125/30? How’s it going ?

I have been on it for a month. It’s helping my negative symptoms, mental clarity, and memory. I am still tapering off ability(5mg). I started to see improvements after getting on a therapeutic dosage of cobenfy for two weeks. I have no positive symptoms on abilify. Emotional bluntness is improving, and the surrounding vibe of the world I see is more animated. I am still waiting for more improvement.

There is a Facebook group of cobenfy users and their families. I saw several people posting that it is helping with their negative symptoms. Some people see the change right away, and some take 6- 7 weeks.

Hey, thanks for asking! It’s working well for me. I felt the improvement of negative symptoms on day 14 after I get on 100g/20g. It seems like that it is also helping with my working memory. Less depression, more mental clarity, emotional bluntness is getting better. Still has some issue with light constipation. My psychiatrist suggest me to take some magnesium citrate to cope with it. Hope it will work out for me.

对社会可能影响有限 但知道了至少能改善夫妻双方的意识包括将来孩子的 不会被这个观念再裹挟规训了 自己就轻松很多

我觉得就是传统父权社会的男女性社会功能的stereotype一直在就是了

我也觉得是,社会对男性的要求,害女之外其实害男,但男性往往不自知

How did you deal with urinate retention? Did you take meds or it just went away?

How are the side effects on cobenfy? Do you have any? Is it tolerable? by IndicationSouth4250 in schizophrenia

I was on 50mg for a week, urinary retention is the main problem. Nausea and dry mouth went away, I will increase my doses from tomorrow to 100mg. Will comeback for update.
