they're making me vulnerable
Paranoia doesn't make you strong. That's a bunch of bullshit.
Paranoia weakens you and keeps you from your life. Paranoia can develop into delusion, which is a scary and debilitating experience. Lowering your baseline anxiety level does not make you vulnerable. If anything it makes you more aware of what's going on around you, because you don't have a cloud of "what ifs" blocking your veiw. You'll be able to understand more and make better decisions. Without paranoia, your judgement is sharper.
Besides, you can't just stop treatment. If you stop taking those pills so suddenly, you could go through withdrawals and it's more than likely that suicidal and other dark thoughts with flood back stronger than before. You can't mess with your brain chemistry like that. Take them as instructed. Be consistent.Fr. Schizophrenia is no bueno.
Lol just took a test and I'm High Risk. I know I'm not though. (But maybe that's what they all say Lol.) But also some of the questions I still found fault with because they could be subjectivly answered.
I've taken a pretty decent amount of notes on schizophrenia, if anyone thinks they have it they can PM me for the notes if they want them.
