I was recently discharged from psychiatric hospital, after having spent seven months there on a Section Three (and am currently in the process of being Sectioned again). I have been admitted to hospital twice before, both voluntarily and involuntarily, and was diagnosed with depression. I have now been given a new diagnosis: Paranoid Schizophrenia.

I was wondering how others diagnosed with Paranoid Schizophrenia coped with being given such a label, and if they have any information on the illness itself, or the medication used to treat it – I have been on Olanzapine, Quetiapine, and my current prescription is Clozapine and Amisulpride – or any advice or experiences to offer me, either through a reply to this thread, or, if you prefer, a PM.

Thank you for your time.
