Venting Cognitive decline

My mind is tripping more and more now that I take antipsychotics. I hate it but this is just destiny as a schizophrenic

Sorry you're suffering

 

[thebunny]

i'm sorry to hear that you're suffering. having a constant battle with the mind can really be a draining thing, especially when the demons start to take over. i hope you find peace within yourself soon. wishing you all the best.

 

[FuneralCry]

I'm sorry that you have to endure this, it sounds really awful. None of us here should ever have to suffer to such great extents. I wish you relief.

I experienced psychosis and had to take a high dose of seroquel. I hated it. They said I would always be psychotic if I didn't take antipsychotics, which was a lie.

I have thought broadcasting and it is truly debilitating.

No. Stop antipsychotics they cause psychosis & suicidal

Skizophrenia is a sign that your brain lacks its needs or has it's limits abused.

Take b vitamins. Stop drugs.

Or keep going to obey some psychopatic psychiatrist who knows NOTHING about biology... But he's not the master of your fate. YOU ARE.

Antipsychotics are horrible. Some doctors prescribe Seroquel for sleep off-label (because they are scared to prescribe proper sleeping pills because of the Opiate-Crisis). The numbing, ghost-like feeling that stuff gives you is the worst.

EDIT: Please don't listen to people who tell you to stop your meds. There is no benefit for you in stopping without appropriate replacements. Things will just get worse. There are better options out there, but vitamins aren't one of them.

Google said it's believing that everyone can hear our thoughts... Or they are on tv. I actually had 2 real telepathy experiences in my life. It's extremely rare. Must be close or have compatible brainwaves, and even then it was once in years, in a super receptive state, people are not.

Seroquel for sleep was so bad... I felt like a zombie. Being on high doses must be soul crushing. Like a lobotomy

If i stop antipsychotics i Will die

 

[Cathy Ames]

I'm sorry you are having the cognitive side effects. I imagine how frustrating that can be. Are the drugs helping with your symptoms?

I have the impression you have not been on them for very long. I hope the side effects will lessen. It's maddening that they haven't been able to find better treatments after all this time.

Win win?

Replace it with somethng better?

I knew someone who did drugs instead to eat. He was forced to get injections, but they never taught him self care.

I suggest you try another path than drugs. Because it can't fix the cause. Stopping drugs & taking high doses of B vitamins could. Try the B vitamins and drugs to see. I get fucked up if I stop mine. Might be hypiglycemia too. Not just anemia. Guess what happens when the brain doesn't have enough fuel, oxygen... And is poisonned? Weird shit. And you die.

If you feel worse on the meds... There are options.

Stopping them is super hard but you seem worse.

Vitamin b is not gonna fix this man.

 

[Hollowillow]

Sorry if I'm breaking a rule by saying that, but the damn antidepressants gave skizophrenia to my sister and they gave her drugs that destroyed her into an invalid. She saw her lover drown. Her emotions were NORMAL!

 

[IWillSmileWhenIDie]

I stopped the antipsicotic medication it really does suck. I will only take it if I have psicotic symptoms and then inmediatly stop. You gotta evaluate your situation, but those are horrible meds if you don't need them and psychiatrists just tell you to medicate to be sure you don't have symptoms they don't care about you and the dose is also higher than it should be in many cases even if they would be helpful long term

Vitamin b is necessary to renew nerves. It can heal brain damage. I got hit in the head by a car. I gave my body materials to heal, it did.

I'm not sure what caused your "skizophrenia" between anemia, hypiglycemia and toxins, so B alone might not be enough. But one thing for sure, you're not born like this, your brain isn't defective it has needs! And you said yourself the meds are destroying your brain, yeah, it's a side effect, and probably on purpose, to control you.

You can't heal a broken brain with drugs. But you can with the right food. That's what eating is for.

Just try them.

I take high dises of b, c, magnesium. For everything. I got hit by a car, got a stutter, couldn't spell my name, couldn't walk straight, saw double... I can't take pain killers. The pain was agony... Like beaten by basebal bats non stop...

I healed with vitamins alone.

I can't fix poisons with vitamins. Only stopping the poison can. I can't remove it from my home... But you can stop putting it in your mouth.

I admire you. Try vitamins b and let me know? I also must control my blood sugar, and avoid abuse... But I probably had some massive psychosis... Like... Yesterday.

Gonna try this asap

Gonna try this asap

Oh wow thank you for opening your mind to the possibility. I feel for your suffering.

A pill can't fix an entire lifestyle but if you take only 1 I'd say a B complex... I take 2x a B100 (mix of all b) plus a high dose of b12.

Eating eggs, chicken, chicken broth from boiled bones, helps too.

I'm still bat shit crazy but... More lucid.

I'd say take a lot of C too. Greens. I eat a lot of crap lately. Just knowing healing foods helps. T least then we can choose. Let me know? I felt better after 1 decent meal. I boiled carrots, broccoli, salt, chicken... Such relief. Yesterday I only ate chips.

Some odd years ago i got in a horrible depressive spiral, and ended up psychotic. My spouse probably got more than a handful of grey hairs from me. Went several years, at least three ip stays a year, pretty much every antipsychotic under the sun would work for a little then stop. Seemed like my only hope was ECT but i have other things that wouldn't react well with that.. spouse finally pressured a dr into listening, went back on wellbutrin and improved some. Could afford to get an actual doctor, put me on stratera (because ritalin or vyvanse is controlled) and i only get some visual things if im extremely extremely stressed.. turns out in my case my adhd burnout not being addressed was the root of it all. Could've avoided losing the first years of my marriage and gaining +100lbs from antipsychotics if doctors didn't just hear 'seeing things and delusions' and start with the antipsychotics. And then waffle from schizophrenia to schizotypal to bipolar and back and forth on arguing diagnoses.

I'm not sure how common what i went through is. But if you have an open doctor or can get a second opinion, it might be worth mentioning. Best of luck..

It is when you think that other people can hear your thoughts.

I agree it's ignorant and dangerous advice.
