Rough couple of days. My mind is going so fast with so much my body can't seem to catch up. I'm physically a zombie. I can't seem to do much purposeful action like doing the dishes, vacuuming etc. I've read a lot of Russian surrealism from the 70's, feeling like it speaks to me. Reacquainted myself with Hegel, read some other stuff too. That's all I can really manage right now. Reading and ruminating.

I had a situation where my prescriber dumped me bc I'm too complex but I found another prescribed at my clinic. My therapist helped me out. She thought the whole situation was handled poorly.

So basically I have to wait out the month like this, and I feel like my brain is going to pop. I have static and buzzing. I'm only on celexa prazocin and migraine stuff topamax and others from my neuro.

Aaaagggh!!!

Are you bipolar? My thoughts used to be the same way. I couldn't stop thinking , and ruminating. I was like a dog running a track. Back and forth. I sat and stared at the walls thinking for ten or twelve hours a day. Then I'd sleep. I only ate microwavable food. They put me on an antipsychotic after that because I was also having bouts of extreme mania. Now my mind is calm. I hope the same for you in your upcoming appointment. I wish it were sooner for you. I definitely know what it's like waiting for help, or for a need medication to kick in. Stay strong.

All I do is sit, stare and think. I'm too sick for much else. I feel your pain and hope you get the help you need.
Thanks for this!

Yes, possibly szchizoaffective. I've been on ap's before some with disastrous effects and only the risperdal was OK but it pooped out quickly. I would like to try lithium again but the last time I was on it I got very sick even though my levels were low.

I took six different aps before they found the right fit for me. I take Saphris,and Geodon now. I'm asking my pdoc tomorrow if I can just take a higher dose of Geodon because it's weight neutral. I took Seroquel, Abilify, Latuda, and Risperdal before these. Either the side effects were to bad, or they did nothing for me. I don't know what you've tried, but there are quite a few out there. I've never been on Lithium. I'm scared to try it.
