I am sane
I thought about counseling but that made it seem like something was wrong with me and multiple psychiatrist said I suffer from
psychosis
. I was in denial for a long period of time but I believe the only thing I suffer from is lack of accomplishments.

I had PP at the end of April this year when I was 5 months postpartum. I haven't felt good on any of the meds I've been given. I was given 3 injections of Invega Sustenna, and am on 1 mg Risperidone. I am now 5 months past my initial PP and have had akathisia, depersonalization, anhedonia, and severe

Postpartum psychosis during labour
Did any one else have PP during labour? My psychotic episode started when I was about 6cm dilated.

What is the relationship of CBD and psychosis?
My sister is in her 7th year with the diagnosis of CBD.... likely she had it a few years earlier. Her progress has been slow.... but recently she has frequent - and getting more frequent - episodes of talking to people who do not exist. She gets very agitated with the 'people' and is now going around

What does recovery feel like?
Hello, I'm only on my 8th day of treatment from postpartum
psychosis
. I did not reach a very severe stage because I almost always maintained a level of "insight", in the sense that I knew something was wrong and I didn't do anything although what I've been through mentally was torturous.

Hope!
Hi all, I just want to give those currently suffering with PPP or recovering from PPP hope that it does end and fully recovering is possible! I had PPP in September 2016 after the birth of my daughter. I was sectionned and admitted to a MBU out of area due to no services locally. I was an inpatient

Does anyone else have OCD as well as recovering from PPP?
I had my baby 4 months ago and was diagnosed with PPP a week after my baby was born. I had previously had OCD and it seems to be on its way back. I also have depression now. I feel like all I want to do is hide in bed. Does anyone else feel like this?

Recovery from PPP - feeling spaced out
Hello, I am currently recovering from ppp after 2 stays on an MBU, with my second stay only ending last month. My little one is now 12 months old and certainly active! I currently take a combination of olanzapine and an antidepressant. My symptoms were mainly delusional with depression also. I have

Hypnobirthing
I became obsessed with the ihypnobirth app while I was experiencing postpartum
psychosis
. I wondered if there are any links.

Link between PTSD and psychosis?
Just curious as to the extent of the link between the two, I'd ask my therapist if I didn't turn mute so easy talking to people. Anyways a lot of triggers set off false memories or things like nightmares when I'm awake. I know they're not real, but they feel like it so bad, they're like movies playing

I feel like my world is falling apart.....
But my question is how do you know the difference between the OCD and
psychosis
? Could I possibly have
psychosis
and have been misdiagnosed? I feel like I am losing myself and that scares me. I just want to be me again for my family.

A year on
Hi there Just wanted to share how I'm feeling a year on from my onset of Pp. Pp has made me realise how important family and friends are to me. That's the main positive I've gleaned from this experience. Also I've learned to be more kind to myself. In the future I would like to use my experience

I'm new here, I guess this is my first post
I've had depression for as long as I can remember, and I've had
psychosis
for at least nearly 4 years, though I think that the symptoms of my
psychosis
have been there since I was 14, maybe younger. I am medicated, which helps with my
psychosis
, but not with my depression.

Psychosis or just Depression.
I also self harmed and it stopped the voices for a while.I'm being treated for major depressive disorder with
psychosis
but I think that this is postpartum
psychosis
. I have good insight into my condition. The problem is, i think I have ptsd, bipolar and ocd too.

Hanging in the balance

psychosis
. since this med change happened i have not been able to get back in to see her as i cannot afford her copays. needless to say i am literally hanging in the balance
