Is there a chance my daughter will be taken from me?

You need to control your paranoia with the antipsychotic medication otherwise much worse things than your daughter taken away may happen. I have seen schizophrenia destroy lives by my own eyes.

it doesn't sound like the medicine is working, visit your doctor to either have a stronger dose or be prescribed a different brand.

Do you have a trusted family member that an help you and your daughter? Perhaps your Mother, sister, or a female in-law? You need to start trusting your own family at least. Your daughter needs to see this trust in action. Your daughter should have a good female role model as well.

You may need to try a different medication, or add antidepressant to the mix to calm you down. So there maybe a lot of trial and error, which means you have to watch yourself closely and report to your doctor of any changes both positive or negative.

Either way, talk to your psychiatrist. If you have the money, get a therapist if possible to talk out your paranoid thoughts too (have 2 doctors basicially), because a lot of psychiatrist only focus on giving you drugs and how they're working, rather than helping you achieve peace of mind with talking things out. With schizophrenia, you'll need both the right medication and talking things out.

I hope everything goes well. You're a great father, and your daughter loves you, never doubt that.

I don't see how you're being helpful here. Or did you only come to be negative?

Like Rilley said, your medication is not working. You need to go back to your doctor ASAP. It's your paranoid schizophrenia that's keeping you up at night and making you hear voices. Get the treatment you need and you won't have to worry about your daughter being taken away.

You have to be logical and always remember that your thinking is paranoid and skewed. Even when you don't know what's real you must believe something. And it cannot be your paranoid delusions. You will figure out a solution.

You need to have FAITH. Not talking religion here but you need some serious self-confidence. Easier said than done I know but do whatever you can to build it whether it being following positive pages on your social media or talking to your therapist more often than usual. Positive self talk is a must. Stop with the negative thinking. Everything will be fine. Try practicing self care. Do things to better yourself mentally and physically. Try working out/going for jogs. You can even bring your daughter! Try a subscription box for fun (I love bulu box) it's a supplement box. It gives me something to be excited about. Follow Bryant McGill on Facebook and read his writings daily. Take a deep breath.

I said "low chance" but that's IF you can keep it together. You do something stupid and the chance goes up substantially.
