Antipsychotic Reaction
At age 21 I was put on
antipsychotics
for bipolar disorder which caused major obsessive thoughts on existence and wanting to hurt myself. I ended up in the hospital for a few days.

I need help deciding on medication
I’ve been offered to try Latuda or Prozac and lithium, because I’ve previously been on antidepressants, mood stabilisers and
antipsychotics
before and I get manic switch and I’m super sensitive to side effects. My G.P suggested I start with one med, that way I can see if it’s working or not.

What’s the best medication for PTSD and anxiety?
Mood stabilisers, antidepressants,
antipsychotics
. I finally got off them all after my weight was out of control and I was literally a walking zombie and just wanted to sleep and eat. That’s no existence. I vowed never to go back on medication.

Quetiapine and nocturia
Has anyone else had this issue on
antipsychotics
and found a way to deal with it? Is it safe to switch to a different anti-psychotic (I thought perhaps I can beg for that at my next appointment)?

A risk-free life is far from being a healthy life.
Cowhage can interact with other medications, including those taken for diabetes, antidepressants called MAOIs, and
antipsychotics
. It can also lower blood pressure. If you take medication for high blood pressure, you run the risk of your blood pressure dropping too low.

FYI: Ask About GeneSight - Genetic Test for Psychotropic Drug Reaction
It covers antidepressants, hypnotics,
antipsychotics
and mood stabilizers. I'm sharing here because after several years, multiple doctors & hospital affiliations, and numerous medications through trial and error, I just recently heard of GeneSight. My new doc offered it, and I jumped at it.

That Disconnected Feeling..
I just wanted to ask those who have recovered- if you had the feeling of being disconnected from your life, like things aren't quite "real"- do you think it was caused by the
antipsychotics
themselves, or is it a symptom of PP?

Antipsychotics
and anesthesia can be really dangerous. Also, thought it weird that Levodopa may not work as well for DLBers. The mystery of it all continues... https://www.lbda.org/content/symptoms Warm Regards, Sarah

Changing my bipolar diagnosis seems impossible!
I was treated, inhumanely in my opinion, with several psychiatric hospital admissions and
antipsychotics
over a period of 5 years.

Update - 18 months on
I'm still on antidepressants and
antipsychotics
but hope to decrease the dosages in the next few months. For now it's all about gaining confidence and enjoying my daughter. I hope to go back to work but am not rushing things yet as I don't want the stress of teaching setting me back.

Confuzzled
Been on
antipsychotics
for 17 years as of next week. Still can't be figured out what's wrong with me. Definitely a personality disorder, possibly and most likely dissociative. Found myself having nightmares while I'm awake again. Scared my boss and a few customers.

Do I have Pernicious Anaemia?
Unfortunately my GP never acted on the test results as they were done privately and as I was taking
antipsychotics
I suspect they put the neurological symptoms down to the bipolar disorder and side effects from the meds.
