Anyone else has continuing mental problems years after treatment for Graves' and TED?
I was lucky, I could have ended up being sectioned and treated for
psychosis
! Now it is 2016 and my personality never has returned to normal.

Postpartem anxiety/ocd/panic
Hey everyone I dont know if anybody has heard of this but the nurse thinks I have got postpartum anxiety/OCD/panic disorder but because I have left it so long to see someone its turned into
psychosis
because of the voices and seeing things she was talking about anti-psychotics today at my appointment

Going back to work anxiety

Impermanence
As some of you probably know I have been supported by APP whilst getting prepared for my art exhibition and thus, raising awareness of Post Partum
Psychosis
. I exhibited my emotional paintings (55 pieces) for 2 weeks at Taunton Library in Somerset in the first 2 weeks of February.

Non restorative sleep destroying life
It was so severe for many months that I eventually fell into
psychosis
from lack of sleep and had to be hospitalized.

Sleep & relaxation & clinical guidelines
I'd really like to have this as a national standard of care for anyone who has had PPP in the UK (and is therefore at risk of having
psychosis
again) - does anyone have any ideas on how to do this? Would it be NICE guidelines?

Haunted by the experience.
Now I am finally "well" again, I am finding myself plagued by thoughts, memories and upsetting feelings surrounding the

. Has this happened to anyone else?

Fear of going crazy
Like say you go into full-blown
psychosis
, can you be treated? I'm so scared of losing my mind.

How do we help them not to worry?
My story, 2 bouts of postnatal
psychosis
, kids are now 6 1/2 and 2 1/2. A year ago, through the uncertainty of adjusting to being a school mum, I needed to step my antidepressant up to 30mg of lexapro.

23 weeks pregnant and really scared.
I have been receiving 1 to 1 support on here for a few weeks now but I'm braving writing something on the board. I had pp after my second daughter was born 11 years ago. I spent time in a mum and baby room off a mixed psych ward. No one ever discussed with me anything about my pp (that I can remember
