To my friend: Schizophrenia Is successfully helped with the right combo of meds. We have both seen that to be true.

So the meds

The biggest problem is feeling better & thinking you don't need meds.

Ever get manic? What's it like? I've always wondered.

I mentioned before that I've got a really great therapist who understands me, is very accepting of who I am and has been helpful to me so far.(I had a terrible one before but that's another long story)

Thoughts?

Anyone ever tried therapy? There are sure some really bad therapists and really awesome therapists out there.

I had both.

Angry, sad or numb? Or maybe happy, peaceful , comfortable or calm? How do you feel today?
