Dual diagnosis
I have depression,
psychosis
and a drug addiction. Lost my job last year because I was "unlikely to recover". GP's keep referring me to Mental Health Services who keep rejecting me. Flat out refuse to do anything to help. Depression came first, then addiction. DWP = severely disabled.

Anybody who takes an ssri along with amphetamine, do you notice a difference depending on which ssri?
It took months, but ended up causing me
psychosis
, which went away as soon as I switched to Lexapro. However, the adderall would not last as long, causing me great frustration, because with the Paxil/Prozac combo an IR dose all of a sudden became an xr. What have been your guys' experiences?

Battling anorexia, insomnia and
psychosis
.... So anyway, for about 7 years I’ve been ‘allergic’ to the sun! It has always been particularly bothersome! But now though, it’s got massively worse!

Olanzapine alternative
Hi ladies, I hope you are all keeping well. I have posted a bunch of times about my struggles with Olanzapine. Unfortunately the 5mg of Olanzapine I'm taking is making me feel low because of how it flattens my emotions. I often feel like an outsider with my own family because I don't have the emotional

One year after PP - A positive message
Dear all, Today exactly one year ago I was sectioned in the psychiatry hospital, leaving a 6 weeks old baby at home with my husband. We went through hell, me suffering the illness and my husband seeing me suffer and wondering if he would ever recover his wife. It hit me in the full corona lockdown,

A year on..
So it's now been a year since I was admitted & discharged from my local mother & baby unit with what they classed as "stress induced
psychosis
" I was admitted when my baby was just 6 days old & he is now a happy healthy 14month old who I absolutely LOVE to the moon & back!

When puerperal psychosis vision become a scary reality........ How to become healthy again?
I have suffered from puerperal
psychosis
. and the interpretation of the "visions or hallucinations" that I had, have became my life experienced. But this is extremely fearful, because it was related to my child sexual abuse, mental health and financial issue towards myself...

Not sure if it’s my olanzapine or PP related?
I got diagnosed with PP 10 weeks post delivery ( I had 90 hrs delivery and had troubles breastfeeding), I got admitted into general psych ward first then moved to mother and baby unit, I was very confused and not accepting the diagnosis. The staff were very harsh and I felt as though no one sympathiesed

Looking to meet other mums who had psychosis?
Hi everyone, I’m hoping to meet some other mums in London who also experienced
psychosis

Quetiapine- dosages and side effects
Hi, I had post partum
psychosis
after my first son. 10 years on I have been diagnosed bipolar. I used to take olanzapine but as you probably all know it makes you fat. Therefore I am on 300mg of quetiapine at night time. I also take sertraline (SSRI) for my terrible PMS/PMDD.

Mutiny on the Thyroid! +missing T3 result and endo's judgement
Psychosis
is documented with hyperthyroid states. She says she will order some scans - I presume this means an radioiodine uptake as she wants to find the hot nodule - bloods every month and that she would like to see me in 2 months time.
