Choosing not to have more children
Evening all,For context, I have a 21-month-old son, and after his birth I spent 6 weeks in a Mother and Baby Unit with him, as well as an initial week separated from him in an Acute Mental Health Ward, due to PP. I initially took Olanzapine and experienced lethargy, weight gain and a general zombie-like

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

My Journey Towards Recovery from a Severe Mental Health Condition, namely Bipolar Affective Disorder Type I
In my case l had a manifestation of mania with

Deep Depression after Psychosis
I had a stay at an MBU this summer with postnatal
psychosis
and received a new diagnosis of bipolar. Since then I have had ups and downs, and am under the care of the perinatal mental health team. Right now, I’m in an awful low.

Depression still really difficult to handle
This is so much worse than the
psychosis
itself, and has been going on since last September.

Symptoms: what made you go to the GP initially ?
[i]What currently bothers me far more is the NICE guidelines draft document list of symptoms: [/i]they are, it appears to me, mainly symptoms that you might expect at a far later stage, including spinal cord disease, impaired balance and falls, impaired gait, dementia,
psychosis
, visual field loss..

Withdrawal symptoms after olanzapine
I think this along with lack of sleep and having her in a lockdown ultimately led to my
psychosis
2 weeks later. I was in a psychiatric hospital for 8 days and was put on olanzapine and sertraline to manage my symptoms.

Midodrine
We rejected flurocortisone because of worries about steroid
psychosis
but reading the patient information leaflet and a little on the Internet about Midodrine makes me even more concerned

Fear of psychosis, is anyone else like this?
I do get comfort though knowing I've been through this before and never slipped into
psychosis
, but I'm utterly convinced due to my pregnancy that my anxiety will turn into
psychosis
in the postpartum stage with their already being a risk (1 in 1000 woman being at a risk of
psychosis
after child birth

Fiancee has PP, and made delusional allegations against me. Grandparents applied for child arrangement order. Not seen family for 6 weeks.
I am shocked and appalled that legal proceedings were allowed to proceed based on little more than the allegations of somebody who has been sectioned with postpartum
psychosis
, clearly suffers from delusions, and whose allegations also targeted complete strangers, and police officers.
