My mind is all over the place today. It's hard to collect my thoughts. I want to do so many different things at once that I feel like I'm being pulled in many different directions. I'm not manic, though, because I'm getting a decent amount of sleep, and I'm even a little tired right now.
I think I feel this way because my antipsychotic was making me dull and suppressing my true abilities. I always felt "delayed" with everything while on this antipsychotic. Like, I was sluggish and had delayed reactions to things. Now I don't feel this way and I can function a lot better.
I'm not saying you should all go off your meds. I think this particular antipsychotic of mine is just no good in some respects. In fact, I plan on asking to go on a different one because meds are good for me.
But anyways, I get like this whenever I go off my antipsychotic because I'm not used to being my old self. How do you focus your thoughts and channel everything into something positive? I'm not sure if this is anxiety, ADHD, etc., but I figure some of you have experienced this when changing medications. Not sure if this thread belongs in the Bipolar Treatments forum, but I think it fits better here?
