Thanks, Phillipa.

> How are you feeling now?

I'm not sure if you were asking me or the original poster this question, but I've had some mild-to-moderate depressive symptoms to contend with as of late. Unfortunately, the negative and cognitive symptoms that I experience as part of my psychotic disorder have been pretty unrelenting, but I may be trying some supplements for those symptoms in the near future. I also experience some mild positive psychotic symptoms (occasional residual hallucinations and ideas of reference), but those don't bother me a whole lot. What has been bothering me a lot has been the apathy and cognitive blunting that I experience from taking my antipsychotic (I know that some of the apathy is from my illness, but my antipsychotic makes it worse).

Anyway, I know that it sounds like I've got a lot of symptoms to contend with, but on a more positive note I am feeling pretty stable and doing better depression wise than I have in the past.

I hope that life has been treating you well, Phillipa.
