I *think* schizophrenia tends to be a body problem. We have depression as a body problem, and for a time had it as a problem of someone else inside as well (she fronted a lot at the time as well, so it was a rough patch for all).
I would try it. If it does bad things, you can come off it again. We've had a load of anti-depressants, and anti-anxiety meds, none have affected us as an us. I even take an anti-psychotic to help me sleep, it has never bothered us. If it did I'd just not take it.
All meds affect everybody a little differently, so your best bet is to see how it affects you and see whether or not you like it =)
We sometimes have problems with communicating. Most of what we do is just wait for it to pass. We've tried a bunch of things like meditation and whatnot, and they didn't work much. Eventually things just get better. You could try visualisation like somebody suggested, that's how we put walls up so maybe it'd work bringing walls down or getting through them.
