My name is Yoshiki Mino from Japan. I have questions about my medication.
First, I will explain about my medical history.I am 27 years old and I have been illness of schizophrenia since 17years old.
I had mild delusions at that time so my parents and I decided to go to the doctor. My doctor at that time prescribed Zyprexa.
But it didn't work at all. I was sleeping all day long. So my parents adviced me to go to the doctor of good reputation in the neighborhood.
He told me that I had a mild neurosis and prescribed haloperidol. I doubt about what he was saying. He was always dodged about my illness.
I noticed that my illness as schizophrenia about 6 month after I had been taken my haloperidol as medication.
My trigger of noticing my illness is that I researched about my medication on internet. It was saying that haloperidol is used as treatment of schizophrenia.
About four years I had taken haloperidol as treatment of my illness, but it was tough days. I never skipped my medication but I had strong fear and gaining weight as side effect.
I could not endure my pain any more so my parents and I decided to change doctor. I moved my house and started my new life in Tokyo. But it didn't go that easy.
I had abilify, rouland and haloperidol as my medication. At first it worked. I felt that it cleared my fear and felt very great.
But as time goes by, my doctor took out haloperidol and add abilify, rouland about three times more than I had taken. I felt tired and I could not get up from my bed. Also I had felt impatience very strong.
I told many times to my doctor that I could not live normally. My doctor told me that my body was lacked of vitamin B so he gave me a vitamin B as medication. I had tough days so my parents and I chose to go back home and focusing on treatment.
When I got home, I started to go to the doctor where he was at 1hour from my home by riding the train. He was young and had the gift of gab. I couldn't imagine it started worst nightmare of my life.
When the treatment had moved on. He took off rouland at all and started using abilify as main medication. I still felt tired and also I was impatience very strong.
So my parents and I asked him to do something but he could not listen at all. When my parents asked about medication, he got angry and told us that "You can change a doctor if you have doubt about my medication." My mother cried and asked the doctor what we should do. The doctor told my mother that "I know how it feels like. It is tough" and he just gave us abilify as medication.
About 2 years passed I had abilify as main medication. It was about 6mg a day and I had tough days. I could not sleep well and I was impatience very strong.
My father had to move to Tokyo because of his job. So I decided to move to Tokyo and started finding a new doctor.
I was moving house in Tokyo and home by train for once a week. It was very tough for me because I couldn't find a doctor.
So I was moving Tokyo and home by train to get treatment by doctors that I had already examined before. I could not live normally and suddenly the nightmare shocked me. At that time about four years ago from now, I started hearing voices. It was nightmare.
Since then my parents and I tried everything we can to stop my voice. But it didn't work. I had 9~10mg of risperidon and 24mg of blonanserin a day. Also I tried 12mg of invega and blonanserin a day but it didn't work at all.
I was impatience very strong and I heard voices all day long. So my parents and I researched about medication and figured out that rouland is the best medication that I had taken. So I asked the doctor to prescribed rouland as medication and it worked. I was impatience very strong but my impatience has gone since I had rouland. But I still hear voices. It worked a little since I had rouland. It was nightmare that when I had risperidon and invega as medication because the voices increased day by day.
Now I take 40mg of rouland a day as irregulary because I feel tired if I take more than 4mg each time so I take 10 times of 4mg rouland as medication a day. Also I take 2mg of blonanserin a day. I already meet 5 doctors this months but didn't have an idea to treat my illness so I researched about my illness and medication. I figured out that Abilify worked.
I asked a doctor to add abilify and voice has almost disappeared.

I take 40mg of rouland, 2mg of blonanserin, 4.5mg of abilify(1.5mg+0.75mg+0.75mg+1.5mg) as main medication. I feel that rouland must be (4mg+4mg+4mg and before I sleep I take 8mg) I must add abilify just little bit more (1.5mg+1.5mg+1.5mg+1.5mg), I wonder if I have to take blonanserin or not. I can't take out blonanserin immediately so I will take 2mg a day and decrease it when these medication got well.

I would like to know that this medication goes well for me.

Sincerely,

Yoshiki Mino
