I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia and I am taking medications for psychotic, depressive and anxiety symptoms. I was first diagnosed as schizoaffective when I was 16 years old when I had my first psychotic break. I have been on and off medications throughout my life and I know that taking the wrong medications will do you no good, but taking the right medications can save your life.

Hi from Wales!
I really like your videos and find them very interesting.
I have suffered with depression myself but am really interested in schizophrenia. Do you know of any useful vids?
Anyway, keep up the good work.
Best wishes,
Rob.
I've been training as a psychotherapist (mainly psychodynamic/humanistic/existential and transpersonal).
I wouyld be really interested to know what you think about talking therapies and if you have found anything in them that could be helpful

Hi Kristen!
I rarely go on the Internet so all that stuff like youtube and myspace are completely strange to me. I have schizophrenia and am now taking olanzapine(or Zyprexa). I love that you're out there talking so candidly about it. Although I would've liked to read about some of the things the voices told you...if you can, write about it I'd totally listen and probably respond...till next time, Tiffany.
