Are you on any sort of medications or are you seeing a therapist for this? What do you do to treat your mental illness? I am glad you post. This is a safe place to vent. I am sorry that your illness makes you feel so out of control. There are things about mental illness that suck.

I have discussed what I don't like about one of my medications and my pdoc gave me permission to stop it for a few days (in order to improve sex) but then asked me to get back on it. She said OK two weeks on, one week off--but the thing is--after 3 days off my anxiety gets bad so if I go without it too long, I find I get triggered more easily and I want to be "better" than that to everyone I am around. (Just when the sex gets better, I get unstable, there must be a link between fear and good sex. ) So really think about why you don't think you can take it. Anxiety can cause us to make bad decisions sometimes... |

It can take a long time to recover from these things--especially when we are older but time will help. Give it time and keep trying! I am sorry this happened to you.

Thank u it happened and I can remember what day of the week it was and the time 3am on a Tuesday morning.I had been taking some new pills and I was falling a lot lately but the shrink that I had at this time said they wont make u fall, sure they didnt.It was just awful when I first fell I didnt even know that I hit my head on the entertainment center which by the way it made out if glass,it was every where along with the blood my hair was so messed up they had to trim it. Can u believe this when I fell I developed tremors so when I started to shake one of the younger nurses who was a ***** accused me of faking it.I was so mad told my mom and she let her have it all of a sudden that nurse was so nice to me I couldnt hold onto anything the glass would slip out of my own hands couldnt really hold onto a fork or spoon so they had made special forks and spoons for me,the only thing good about the nursing home was the physical therapists they were so nice and really cared about me I had to learn how to walk all over again,
