I Have Schizophrenia And I Take Invega And Abilfy For Treatment

Question : I have schizophrenia and I take invega and abilfy for treatment. I have grossly disorganized behavior that isn't too serious and post schizophrenic depression since 9 months ago. The symptom I hate the most is thought broadcasting. I know logically that other can't know my thoughts unless I express them, but I feel like others know my thoughts anyway, on a deep, intuitive level. Invega and ablify isn't enough to cure thought broadcasting. What can I do? Can I do meditative inner work to fix thought broadcasting? Would it help? Or is medication the only way out?

My doctor thinks that my symptom isn't severe enough to start adding a powerful antipsychotics on top of invega. Adding an another drug is a big commitment isn't it?
So I want to fix my thought broadcasting without adding a drug that can cause sedation or weight gains, if that's possible.
If I really try hard to comvince myself out of the false belief of thought broadcasting, maybe I will manage to cure or lessen the symptom. Is there anything I can do without adding drugs? Or should I simply wait untill "schizophrenia" itself gets better?

Hi I am 25 years old male, and I was first diagnosed with schizophrenia when I was 18. I was almost perfectly recovered on 2 occasions only to fall back into relapse 2 times, both of them due to methampentamine abuse (now I have commitment never to do any kind of drugs, forever) Anyway, I have been taking invega (highest dose), abilify (highest dose) and benztropine 1mg since the latest relapse and I have grossly disorganized behavior, avolition, thought broadcasting, post psychotic depression, and even social anxiety that developed in response to thought broadcasting. All of those above symptoms are relatively minor and are getting better. I go to college and yes I am capable of it when I take only minimum course work and just avoid evrything from time to time when I know I don't feel right. I did a bit of research on schizophrenia since my quality of life moved from extremes of life and hell in accordance with recovery and relpase and I think I know my symptoms on a logical level but I can't help living a broken life. On top of those symptoms I recently found out I have catatonia and I am scared as hell that this might get worse and worse. I pace when nobody is around somtimes for hours I feel tensed when I am forced to sit down. but I can sit down if I must I grimace as if I have tardive dyskenisia (I thought I have tardive dyskinisia but I don't) I sometimes put extreme effort to maintain a mask like face because I know I look weird and I would eventually avoid everyone like I have social anxiety or whatever I sometimes walk in a exaggerated motion out in the streets and it looks funny or wierd to others. When I become self conscious I feel like avoiding everybody. but sometimes I have no problems with walking naturally especially when I am not self conscious sometimes my friends say why I sit in a manner that seems uncomfortable My doctor can't give more than 3 minutes for one patient cause there are so many patient for her to see and it is not a therapy session so she is unavailable for talking. Do I have catatonic schizophrenia? Will it get worse? do I have to take more meds from now on? Is there a possibility that catatonia will go away without adding more meds?
