My partner was diagnosed with schizophrenia about four years ago… He has been in and out of hospitals in Australia over the past few years. He has been on most medications with no relief of symptoms. Clozapine was given on one hospital admission with significant change although he developed a heart problem and cardiologist wouldn’t allow to continue. He is currently in hospital where his doctors are talking about ect…
Has anyone had experience or feedback in a similar situation? I think when we have exhausted all options I would want him to try it although he’s very hesitant…
I wish there was more hope for people with schizophrenia i have watched the decline of a bubbly happy person into a paranoid delusional person.
It’s so hard to stay positive
