...See more This is the hardest part of my life right now. Balancing a relationship that is most likely a catfish and being stuck on a dreadful antipsychotic that gives me no relief and makes me feel awful. I find it too difficult to do schoolwork and learn anything. My emotions are blunted to the point where I can't feel anything. I'm depressed and anxious as ***, and I just want it all to end. I wish it were easier to detach... Maybe if I do the correct meditation, I'll feel a lot better, but even meditation doesn't seem to do it for me. I think I'm also just overwhelmed by the load I've been taking on... Trying to make money, go to school, lose weight, work out, and have a relationship that seems futile (I don't want to elaborate, but it's terrible), and maybe what's worst of all, the medication, although the relationship is what's really killing me. Be kind, please. I know it's a situation that can be easily avoided, but it's not.

Tapering Olanzapine

...See more Hey guys. I'm so glad I finally get to taper my olanzapine again. I went down by few and I'm confident I'm doing well. I'm actually proud that I'm strong enough to do these large jumps. A lot of people struggle with it and have to go really slow, and I feel sorry for them. I don't want to sound egotistical, I'm just highlighting a positive thing to mention about my strength.  I'm diagnosed schizophrenic, and that's why I'm on antipsychotics in the first place. I'm going to be so happy once I've finally tapered off completely (that's the hope, at least). Tell me what it was like for you guys to be successful in your "unmedicated" path, or your success with your schizophrenia. I know there are many different paths and struggles, and I'd like to hear what everyone has to say.

The Journey To Find My Fair Maiden

...See more Yes, wrought the iron Bend it into shape Your somber loneliness won't be in vain Pray Ill be back in town before its too late Remember that I am nigh in your heart For I am off to find my true love And Ill come back, bearing a blood-stained Cape, prideful, and glorified Like iron smelted in a furnace, I will glow with resilience Welcome my return from yonder passages Along the journey to find my fair maiden You will then see me appear from the darkness Beneath that overhang Me and my bride, glistening with utmost Gaiety atop my steed, The townsmen cheering my name While the sun shines upon us under the hill - JEO the Aose

Transitioning Into Independence (Cutting Loose Ends)
Gateway to Growth Paths / by JEOtheAose

...See more I have been struggling with abject poverty for nearly 4 years, and just got my disability benefits. I live with my aunt, my brother, and my cousin, and they are very controlling. I havent had freedom for 4 years. I lost my apartment, because I inherited some money that went into the house Im currently living in, but I am not an owner, which I think is unfair, and quite frankly, sad. I am thinking of getting rid of all of my social connections, because it seems that I can never find nice people. What are your guys thoughts? Are you in a similar situation, or have been? Please let me know. Thank you for reading.
