Saw someone who followed me simping so hard for antipsychotic medication that they went as far as to say that questioning or doubting whether you want to be on them counts as a delusion, and so I blocked them lol
We support non-medicated schizophrenics here, Sir
Everybody gets to choose their own paths of treatment and recovery, just bc you have a psychotic disorder instead of depression or anxiety doesn't mean you have less autonomy or choice in how you want to manage your symptoms. We can make our own medical decisions, idc if everyone in the world has been preprogrammed to think a schizophrenic person off their meds is the worst thing in the world and they must not be thinking reasonably - we are capable of making our own medical decisions and yes we do have rational concerns and valid justifications.
#im not saying everyone should go off their meds#im saying that if you love your meds and your life wouldn't be the same without them then that's so awesome#but people who are unhappy or uncomfortable while they're on them should be able to choose not to take them#for every other disorder they have a whole toolbox of ways to approach managing and living alongside it's symptoms#but with psychotics disorders all the doors are closed and the only one made available to you is meds#even though that's not the only one that works or will help improve things#i haven't been on antipsychotics in like 3 years and fellas I'm doing fine#i have schizophrenia so my psychosis is not intermittent and my symptoms aren't only sometimes#and I don't take the meds bc they ruined my life and it just become a medical choice I could not justify for myself anymore#we are not going to shit on non med psychotics#not on this page#actuallypsychotic
