Is Schizo neuro-degenerative?

I think part of my recovery was helped by a therapist of mine who introduced me to neuro-plasticity and the idea that my brain could re-wire itself. I had to break down the "schizophrenic" conditioning, which involved smoking and having fun, living my life and being human.

Now it's officially Bipolar. But I'm starting to think, the only reason I'm holding back from getting off the medication is my conditioning.

Withdrawal reactions may be holding you back from getting off the medication. Withdrawal from psych drugs was the hardest thing I ever did in my life. Psychiatry mistreated and abused me and thats when I finaly saw they were the ones who made me sick ! and learned the truth, I decided to get off the pills. But I will still take a pill to sleep now and then to be honest. Check out:
