Difficult decision. What would you do?
Hi everyone, I have been on a low dose of Olanzapine (5mg) for 6 months. I have tried lowering my dose a couple of times but I always get terrible insomnia which brings on anxiety. I am turning 35 this year and really want to try for baby number 2. My psychiatrist has assured me that being on Olanzapine

Newly anxious...
I feel alone for a lot of life’s new problems and issues...I’m also starting to feeling like
psychosis
may be a new issue I’m going through...and I quite possibly may have thyroid issues. Anyone else going through the same things?

postpartum psychosis
My partner gave birth a week ago but 3 days ago she stared acting irrationally , hearing voices, paranoid illusions, similar to schizophrenia. It took me 2 days to get anti psychotic drugs low dose from gp but no major improvement. Mental health are involved but no real support or diagnoses. I’m struggling

PP and my mum
My mum had postnatal depression with me in 1998 and postpartum
psychosis
with my sister in 2002. She hid it from midwives and medical professionals as long as possible as she didn’t want my sister or I to be taken by social services. She eventually got help but was not sectioned.

People of HU - Where are they now? Catching up with Emily one year later.
Psychosis
is the feeling that at any second an emergency will happen. You're in a very high state of anxiety and fear. You feel the world is unpredictable. And I feel for anyone that has experienced this.

Olanzapine withdrawal/life after Olanzapine
My psiquiatrist says that it is normal to go through a difficult period after quiting meds and she does not want to put me for now in an antidepressant as they can cause
psychosis
. Did you also have a difficult time after quiting your meds? And how long did it last?

Appointment with psychiatrist
Been considering a second pregnancy, what plans can be put in place to minimise risk of second case of Post partum
psychosis
? Also experiencing residual anxiety could occasional medication be helpful? Just thought it would help to pose these questions here also

Link between post partum psychosis and the peri menopause
At that time I did not know about the potential link between post partum
psychosis
and subsequent
psychosis
during the peri menopause. I believe this is a vital issue that needs further research and understanding.

Increased appetite on olanzapine
I was on 2. 5mg of olanzapine at 36 weeks pregnant as a preventative with no side effects , I went up to 5mg a few days after delivery, two weeks ago and I am Constantly hungry and craving sweet foods. I'm eating so much junk, going in the kitchen and eating 500 calories worth of biscuits, chocolate
