Helping sister with PP
Hi, my sister was recently admitted to an MBU for PP. We live 200miles away so I can only visit her weekly in person. Does anyone have any tips on activities/excercise that I could try with her when I visit to make the visit more structured and effective. I am reluctant to just sit by her bedside as

New here! Not sure whether to tell employer about pp
I just stumbled across this forum and could really have done with this a year ago 🙄 I developed pp in the hours after giving birth and had two episodes within the following week. Thankfully, I responded to treatment with olanzapine and have been mostly fine since. I say fine, I haven't had pp again

Psychosis after brain injury
We have been told that the
psychosis
has happened as part of the brain injury, and although not everyone experience it , my dad is one of the unlucky ones.

Disgusted
My brother has been hospitalized 3 times for
psychosis
where I didn't see him for months at a time while he was in the hospital. His first hospitalization is what started my anxiety/depression. I was only 13 and traumatized. Now at the age of 18, I still continue to suffer with anxiety/depression.

New here, I need a hand
For the past 3 weeks I have cried every day and I fear I may have a
psychosis
. I've also had worrying thoughts of suicide. I feel really confused and irrational sometimes. I don't know where I should go for help.

Didn't have "voices" in head only my own constant voice??
The word
psychosis
makes me think of hearing voices and that's what a lot of people assume when I mention the word
psychosis
or anti psychotic medication. Sometimes I wander if I had a nervous breakdown or a mental breakdown and not PP if that makes sense or if that is the same as PP.

Birth plan and meds...
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had a good birth plan template to use (following experience of PP) - I can't really find anything. I had baby boy at 39 weeks, mild PND. Then baby girl at 27 weeks, full blown PP and went to MBU in Birmingham (live in Cornwall!). I've been on lithium for bipolar for

Afraid.
What if I go through
psychosis
. If a coincidence occurs I start to question it and say well why did that happen then I start to think what if I think it's a sign from god or that I'm psychic. I just think about a bunch of things that mean I'm going crazy.

In hospital for the 2nd time in this episode of postpartum psychosis
My bipolar symptoms are under control now it's just the
psychosis
that won't go away. The voices are very strong and demanding and hard to resist acting upon sometimes. They are trying out a last resort medication on me now to see if that makes anything better.

I'm scared I'm going insane ?
It's gotten really bad over the last couple of days, it started off with me being worried I have
psychosis
or schizophrenia. This is because I have derealization 24/7 I feel really out of it and lightheaded. I also feel like I'm disconnected from my family and feel on edge all the time.

Raising awareness of PP
I think that it would have been useful for my family and I to know the symptoms before I spiralled deep into a
psychosis
. So my idea was to contact the NCT to encourage them to mention this illness (its early signs) while they were already discussing mental health.

PPP 9 months after delivery
My wife was diagnosed with postpartum
psychosis
9 months after the birth of our daughter. This was in US. I decided to take a second opinion from a doctor in India. The doctor there mentioned that postpartum
psychosis
happens only till 6 months after delivery.
