Hello everyone,
I am currently in the hospital for a depression episode and am now feeling really revved up, hyper, thinking lots, bad talking faster.It is a huge change from last night. Also I didn't sleep very well just like the night before. So I'm trying to keep my composure so I don't freak out on the staff.I'm also agitated. I was like this only like five days ago. I have beef going through highs and lows as well as some mild visual distortions and delusions. The doctor seems to only want to increase my lamictal back up to 200 mg and that's it. In my opinion I need an anti psychotic as well eventough I have tried nearly every one available for bipolar. This is the first time for mild psychotic symptoms. I am 42 and was diagnosed like 6 years ago.
I'm trying to figure out what to do to calm me down and what I should do to advocate for myself. Thanks
