Sertraline or SSRI with Olanzapine
Did anyone take Sertraline or another SSRI with Olanzapine. I have bad anxiety and am scared of Olanzapine because of a higher cardiac event risk. And then if you add Sertraline it can also cause adverse affects. So anxious about Olanzapine and then both.

Our Dad's Decision to Try NUPLAZID & How We Are Going to Pay for This Expensive Medicine
As many of you know, my precious, fun, and funny father has had PD for probably close to 20 years, and a recent fall and surgery on the broken bone brought on
psychosis
. The condition comes and goes but has had very serious impacts on him and his family.

my mom wonāt put me on anxiety meds
In the last 4 years Iāve been experiencing stress-induced
psychosis
. Anxiety has totally ruined my relationship with my family because I would be too anxious to sit with them and have them judging me.

Too complex for bipolar?
I was expecting bipolar diagnosis, but they said I was too complex seeing as so much of it is ocd based, trauma response, very sensitive to hormone changes and all the
psychosis
and mania.

Dissociative disorders
I assumed this was
psychosis
, but my psychiatrists are going to look into dissociative disorders, as I dissociate fairly often. They think I have a lot of trauma and suppressed memories that need to come out. Anyway, when researching this it came up with DID.

Guilt over choosing to have another baby
I found the forum after I experienced
psychosis
following stopping breastfeeding my eldest daughter in 2021. Quite soon after leaving general psychiatric hospital I fell pregnant again which was a shock at the time but turned out to be the biggest blessing.

Relapse of PP yet not had a baby second time
I am 3 weeks into the
psychosis
. The meds seem to be kicking in now. But itās all so frightening as I am at a mental health ward. I feel I can change and adapt to this new world I am living in. Iām back on olanzapine which I am not too thrilled about but I know it will get me better like last time.

I was at my brothers today and kept thinking , āthey donāt want me here, screw you allā they have kids. And I didnāt think the kids wanted me there either. But it was the 13 year olds bday and I completely forgot her. Thatās what I do to survive. I donāt know whatās going on with me but thatās an intrusive

i am struggling
I am a recent cancer survivor and have an older brother that has schizophrenia... my OCD theme is afraid of
psychosis
/schizo. I hate that I am in true fear of ever developing it because I see the pain my brother goes through. But it's a real thing. It's like I don't know how to process his illness.

Having a bad time of it even though trying really hard
The psch team are satisfied I'm not full-on in
psychosis
as I can recognise that what's happening with me isn't normal even if I'm not sure if I believe it on and off. Similar to my previous episodes, so maybe that wasn't even PP?

intrusive thoughts and images
I have battled anxiety and depression with slight
psychosis
, off and on for almost 13 years. Mentally and emotionally I am over the place. I don't usually talk to anyone about my challenges for multiple reasons. One of them being is that I don't want sympathy or pity.

Being confident as a mother after post partum psychosis
My husband's brother and his wife are having a baby, baby is due in May. I don't feel jealousy as such. I would feel able to admit to feeling jealous on here because I know many members have been very open about the mixture of feelings they have in their recovery and further on in the future. I am rambling

Not again, please!
However my ongoing mental health issues, which have been lots worse lately (recent inpatient for
psychosis
, Borderline and cPTSD and recent life ending attempts) have definitely affected him. Talk of life not worth living, panic attacks, trouble sleeping, sleep walking etc.

Re-Admitted to MBU
I had postnatal
psychosis
/a manic episode in the summer. My community team felt that an inpatient stay would help me and the doctors find a treatment plan. They have said I need to be in for three of four weeks. I know from the outside that seems like a short time in the life of my family.

Baby no.2 countdown!
So there is lots of faih, trust and good hope but yeah of course the risk remains and sometime I think about the scenario of another
psychosis
ā¦. I find the waiting game for this baby much more challenging though. Whereas last time I quite easily went 1 week overdue.
