Guest Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2002. Medication then was the only solution. Everything was only about medication. I now notice that the attitude has changed. Its not just about the medication. Therapy etc. anyone else notice this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koa Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Yes. I think that the model that some people are okay without medication is becoming more accepted. There are a lot of factors that go into recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissaw72 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2002. Medication then was the only solution. Everything was only about medication. I now notice that the attitude has changed. Its not just about the medication. Therapy etc. anyone else notice this? I was the opposite ... when I was diagnosed I went off all my meds because I didn't think I needed them. But now, medication is an important part of everything for me. My attitude has totally changed about it all. I also need the support of my pdoc (and other DRs) to get by also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatsizbucket Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 This is along the lines that my pdoc thinks. He said that eventually he would discontinue each aap one at a time, until I was off them all, when I make a breakthrough in the therapy I am receiving.
