I'm a little confused: is it schizophrenia? Schizoaffective disorder? Bipolar? Bipolar with psychotic features? Depression with psychotic features? The treatments for each of those might be a little different, so the more information you can give, the more helpful the advice here can be.
Also, regardless of what your actual diagnosis is, what are your symptoms? Which symptoms are the most troublesome for you? Sometimes one gets the best results by treating symptoms, without worrying too much about what the diagnosis is.
And what other medications have you tried? Have any of them helped? Which ones helped most with which symptoms?
I'm sorry you're feeling so rotten, I know how hard it can be, when meds aren't helping. It's easy to feel like giving up. Hard as it is, though, I'd like to try to help you hang on until you find something that helps more. It is possible, you know.
Good luck!
