Paranoia ramped up for a bit was convinced everyone I knew was plotting to capture and torture me. It's fading ever so slowly. Ugh!!!

Thanks. I should be ok as long as I fall asleep soon. Today has been pretty darn mild in comparison to the past week or so.

I changed my name last night and I fell asleep fast enough last night to avoid complete insanity.

Pretty quiet day so far in this head of mine. I can't believe it's almost 1PM here and no paranoia yet. That's a good thing I suppose. Just feels weird after the last week or two. Pretty tired was up at 6:15AM. So, I'm gonna take a nap.

Well maybe the med adjustment last week has started to work. I do probably need another 1/2mg in the morning. Nighttime isn't too terribly bad if I get to sleep by midnight, but another 1/2mg at night would probably eliminate a greater majority of it.
Yesterday and today have been fairly quiet in my mind. A nice break from the absolute chaos I was experiencing. |

Really struggling today. Almost didn't eat lunch...was soooo paranoid someone poisoned it. It's really hard to break through with some rational thought but I managed to get lunch down without dying. Also, having paranoia that someone followed me home when I went to get lunch and is wait for me to leave again so they can hurt/kill me.

Sorry you're feeling so bad. Paranoia is a terrible thing to have to live with. It definitely sounds like you either need a different AP or serious dosage increase. I know that for me the paranoia faded off into the background once I was on powerful enough meds. I hope the NP is able to bring you some relief at your appointment.

I'm pretty sure we'll be changing the AP and using at least 1mg AM & PM. Hopefully 2mg at nite.

I'm going to get relief if it's the only thing I do in the near future. Just frustrating it takes so long outpatient but inpatient is NOT a possibility right now. I'm still doing ok the majority of the time...so...the hospital isn't ideal. Although it would be nice to get it right in a couple of days.

And by ok I mean still somewhat rational.

NP appointment tomorrow at 12:15. I really hope we work this out a little more quickly this time around. I'm super anxious to be there and figure this out. I'm getting a bit impatient. The paranoia is SUPER exhausting!!!
