I used to take olanzapine religiously at 25 mg for Schizophrenia. I did exactly what the doctors asked because I wanted to be a good person and not the stereotypical person who doesn’t take their drugs.

In my opinion drugs and therapy are useless. If they were actually rational pills everyone would be taking them recreationally. Antipsychotics are simply sedatives in my opinion.

The idea of talking to a patient about their delusions is stupid to a degree I cannot comprehend. Therapists should instead say “You are full of nonsense, listen to Classical and read 2 Chapters of War and Peace for next time”. The goal of this beneficial technique is the same as brainwashing - to replace part of the brain, except in this case with a concrete and rational reality.

If I could have a do-over, I would have gotten a dog instead of taking those pills.

There is only one reality, as Murakami once wrote.
