Lingering delusions / beliefs
I am really struggling with the worries I had at the time during
psychosis
as they still feel quite real to me. It’s really affecting the way I interact with my partner, baby, family and friends. I can’t imagine not ever thinking the things and it affects how I am with everyone so much.

I feel purposeless, and I have no hope for a better future
I always had very low self-esteem, but I am now developing a
psychosis
where I hate all other people I see because they are "more" than me: more beautiful, more popular, more appreciated, more feeling good about themselves, more extrovert, more successful, more rich, ...

Totally desperate and abandoned (sorry- this is a long rant)
In summary, I was diagnosed with GCA in May 2017, had terrible reactions to Prednisolone (severe
psychosis
being the worst- apparently 1 in 20 people suffer this) such that my husband had to call out the Crisis team.

Feeling Guilty
In brief, I am realizing 23 years after having my Son that I had post party
psychosis
! I can't believe no one saw this and so I didn't receive any help at all.

mom with ocd
I’m 8 months I have gone from fears of suicide to fears to
psychosis
and schizophrenia . All those I can handle. The intrusive thoughts about my son have broken me. This has been my worst battle. The first time I had an intrusive thought was in April.

Bradycardia from stress/depression
Social work claims that my elderly father (in his mid-90s with multiple health issues and episodic
psychosis
) does not merit assessment for a care home. The GP says my father is the family's responsibility- i.e., mine. Though my pulse is regular, it is slow, i.e. under 60 BPM.

Will I ever feel “normal”?
I am definitely much happier, but then my anxiety kicks in and says “Hey, what if this is mania or
psychosis
setting in”?

Olanzapine indefinitely
Hello ladies, I hope you are all doing well. I am pregnant with my second child and I’m on 5mg of Olanzapine. I have been on it for 2.5 years now. I am consumed with fear of what it will be like when I start tapering Olanzapine in the future. I might want to stay on it indefinitely but I’m scared of
