    Thank You for sharing your story.I have been living with schizoaffective disorder over half of my life and while I have always taken my medication I understand there are many folks like yourself who go off of their medications from time to time. Hopefully others who read your post will come to realize how very important it is to take the medications as their doctors tell them to do.

    May God Bless You and your family!

    Thank you Janet!Before my daughter even said those words,i was living like I was the only one living with this desease,but realized after she said that to me,that when one person has to live with it,there family and friends do to.I realized i was only thinking about how i felt and not care about everyone around me.The quote for my everyday now is,Positive is Power..Grin
