Coming to terms.
The
psychosis
after my daughter was born was brought on by my GP giving me antidepressants. They sent me into
psychosis
. I have been diagnosed with Bipolar/PTSD, and now am reading all I can on the subjects.

anxiety or psychosis?
She told me I may be experiencing signs of paranoia and
psychosis
. Every psychologist and psychiatrist I’ve seen has told me I’ve had social anxiety. Even though she doesn’t specialize in mental health, I’m so scared I might be psychotic.

Post-partum psychosis and second pregnancy
I had my son 4.5 years ago and suffered PP. I was in a MBU for 2 months with my son and was able to breast-feed with their help. Since then I have had two manic/psychotic episodes, one adult mental health hospital admittance, and been diagnosed with bipolar. I have been well for about a year and a half

psychological assessments and postpartum psychosis
I believe my daughter developed postpartum
psychosis
after intrusive discussions with childrens services pre birth despite being logged that no psychological assessment should be completed 6 weeks prior/post birth. Where can I go for answers regarding this.

Post-operative delirium/psychosis
These episodes of post-operative delirium/
psychosis
are not of just being a little confused but of such things as in complete terror, hallucinating and paranoia, trying to escape from the hospital.

GCA & COVID-19 Can Mimic Each Other
High-dose steroids can cause depression, aggression or frank
psychosis
so a telephone follow-up to check on their mood is useful if they are socially isolated. Medical complications include diabetes and hypertension – if they have a home blood pressure monitor, encourage them to use it.

Previous Psychosis episodes
My thyroid inflamed and caused the
psychosis
. Currently not on any medication for my thyroid, but I’ll be on medicine for it and I shouldn’t go through a thyroid storm again! I weaned myself off my psychiatric drugs both times a few months after the
psychosis
occurred.

My Post-Partum Journey | People of HealthUnlocked - Meet Emily (Part 2)
The last article I wrote was about my initial week as I was admitted to the hospital for Postpartum
Psychosis
, and mostly about how people reacted or responded to my unusual behavior. I’m happy to report my relationships with my family members are good and strong.

Trial and error
I figured out finally that
psychosis
is also a type of depression. I'm like goodness gracious why can't there be less definitions? I was totally lost it when my brain wasn't attached to my body. Hearing of extremely distant items.

What to look for!
Her initial
psychosis
landed her in the hospital for just 2 days where they prescribed her Olanzapine, 15mg daily. It helped with mania almost immediately but of course came with other side effects.
