Medications and Schizo-affective disorder

Hello Everyone!

I have the diagnoses of Schizo-affective, PTSD, anxiety, and T1D and currently really struggling with managing my symptoms. I am currently taking a very high dose clozapine, anti-psychotic, at 850mg and still not at a therapeutic level. I am questioning whether this medication, clozapine is worth exploring more...Does anybody have any similar experiences with it? Or are there any other medications that others may use to treat their schizo-affective disorder?

Opening Myself Back Up

I don't know what happened. Somewhere along the line, I lost my voice.

I used to share my struggles with balancing my physical health conditions with my mental health. I used to be comfortable being honest and open. I wanted, like all of us, to break the stigma.

As I grew older, became less of a young adult and more of an... adult, I began to feel shame over my "failures," fear of judgment and a horrible sense of inadequacy. I let the stigma quiet me, and fill my life with even more negativity.

Recently, I have decided to shift my focus from trying to "succeed" and instead on trying to recover, and to truly learn who I am and what I want. I am taking space and working on me and I want to share this journey. I want to open that part of myself up again.

So here I am, ready to share, excited to learn from you all, and for everything life holds next.

Some times I feel like I can’t keep up with my disease. Then I thank Jesus Christ for the wonderful husband of mine who every single day is there helping me with all my gadgets to help me still alive.

Anyone live this way?

It’s a daily struggle just to want to get outa bed,muchless look at my unclean home&laundry. But i have made the word “Homebody” more meaningful. I have a dream husband(no he’s not a knockout with his looks)but he does everything for me,and anything I askhe does it. I don’t cook,I barely clean. He works 2 full time jobs. We owe several homes/property and vehicles are of no issue. Ok my problem is,I hate to go any where,ANYWHERE NO MATTER! He has bought and brought home to me so much.yes I know he loves me. But bc Iv been sick for 20+yrs two aftr three things of sickness would happen over the yrs. so now I’m among all the other crap,Iv been postmeno fir 6 yrs and thats when my anxiety started taking over my life. It has ruined so much with my husband and my 2boys and it has gotten so bad that two of my 6 gkids lived with me.1 I raised from 18mnths she’s 14 yo now and her lil brother was taking when she was about 8 and we were gona raise them together but I couldn’t do it and had him adopted outa the county. But my anxiety is trrrible everyday all day,both my boys deal with it too. And I hate to know the things Iv given them that causes pain and no sleep. But my nephrology said that my thyroid being so “over active”,hyperthyroidism,is what’s causing my to be so bad and my levels have been sky high then will drop very low,which I know is known as hasimotos disease. But I just wondered if anybody else makes up so much excuses to keep from leaving the house. I’m sorry Lord but I do bc I stay so tired exhausted worn out and weak!! I truelly hope nobody understands this pain bc to understand it you have to live #AnxietyDisorders #ChronicPain it daily. Thank you for reading this. Thanks for you all being here as I’m a newbie. Thanks again. God Bless. Have A great day!!
