My mums anxiety, OCD and
psychosis
has got to the point where she could not cope any longer and as a family we were not coping anymore. My own anxiety and mental health issues increased dramatically and I was not coping at all and just making the situation worse.

VITAMIN DEFICIENCY with reference to B12, also PPI's
He described a 66-year-old woman hospitalized with severe depression,
psychosis
and a loss of energy and interest in life who had extremely low blood levels of B12 and whose symptoms were almost entirely reversed by injections of the vitamin.

I just need an answer
The CPN said that he wished to refer me to a psychiatrist for my
psychosis
. I have known for a long time I suffer from
psychosis
, it is natural almost when someone has many pressures, and I do have many.

Feel like my anxiety is going to cause me to have a break down
I'm a PSW caring for someone who has daily episodes of
psychosis
herself. Probably the worst job for me right now lol I'm forgetting things, losing track of time and just general feel like I'm going to go insane at any moment. I just want to sleep and be at home.

No Mother and Baby Unit in Wales
Hello all, I've read a few things on this forum and it is fantastic. I have only been discharged 2 weeks ago from a Mother and Baby unit London. I am from South Wales. Its saddening to find out that the mother and baby unit was shut down several years ago. I have written a blog as a way of personally

Reducing Venlafaxine after taking for 5 years. Anyone suffered withdrawal hell?
Background of my PP and medication: I had Postpartum
Psychosis
in February 2010 and after being prescribed Olanzapine the symptoms of
psychosis
soon subsided. However, in July 2010 I fell into an incredibly deep depression and have been on a number of anti-depressants ever since.

Is PP more common when you give birth to a son??
Most of the stories I have read about women that have had PP have given birth to a son. I'm wondering if having a son could contribute to PP? Please comment 'boy' or 'girl' below. Cheers

Psychotic symptoms or OCD?
It was a little scary to hear the term
psychosis
but as the thoughts had now gone and I recognised hormones can make you feel a bit crazy and every day I just felt relief that I could see my son as everyone else did.

PP in the menopause ?
Hi Everyone, I am 60. I had the worst case of PP when I had my son 33 years ago. It was life threatening to the point were I was sectioned. After many attempts with meds, ECT - Electroconvulsive therapy did the trick. (Despite controversy). Previously I had no mental issues and they went after a
