Stopped taking my meds, now I can't sleep and feel sick

A lot of people with schizophrenia will stop taking there medications after a long period of time because they start to feel “better” and think they don’t really need it. I have done this a couple of times actually (hate to admit that) and I noticed that every time I stopped taking my meds, especially seroquel, my insomnia is ridiculous. I literally cannot and will not sleep without it. I get body aches, chronic nausea, etc.. it almost feels like I have the flu. I recommend getting back on your meds as soon as possible. You’ll feel better quickly. 💕

Why would not be taking medication funny? Call your doctor and tell her you stopped so she or he can restart you schizophrenia isn't a joke.
