welcome to healthcaremagic
you can surely take 2nd opinion
from the description it seems you should not stop medicines on your own.
please be under doctor's treatment and follow advice and get regular check up
hope you be all right with madicines

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
Psychiatric disorders have a very fine line between various groups of diseases.Often what we read on internet is not merely seen clinically.So , the decision of labeling a person with a disorder depends on the Doctors experience and specific criteria.The treatment also varies similarly.
In your case ,the diagnosis and the treatment might be correct . Just because you have an symptom free period after stopping the drug it is not at all advisable to do so.You can opt for second opinion .I advise you to resume the drug and not to stop it abruptly , visit your Psychiatrist.
Take care.

no,u misunderstud..i have those symptoms from 4yrs ago, not from now,except i had them much stronger then.now is moderate.i can live with it.
.. i gave up pills in time,not abruptly
.. and i know sz people don't have pain cos i spoke to some of them
what i don't understand is why to take pills for halucinations if i don't have anymore but i still have pain and vibe and i think i should treat the cause not the symptoms.i have other symptoms also that makes me think is some else like red chicks near my ears,hear noise louder and if i watch at a white wall i see a black point with my left eye.

Your doubts are understandable. However, it is very important for you to realize that the doctor who has treated you, knows more about you than any other doctor. Treatment in psychiatry are tailored to suit individual needs. So, any decision to stop or continue treatment should be taken after a discussion with your treating psychiatrist. Try asking these questions to your psychiatrist. I am sure he/she will be willing to clarify your doubts.
