Beware

06:24 AM

Okay, I finally have the courage to say it...

No offense guys, but I can't trust anyone because anyone can pretend to be a "detective" who wants to help me. I just wanted to make a public announcement

They know who they are and they are after me.

I've been taking Adderall to help keep me awake, but I've gotten 4 hrs of sleep in the last 3 days. Idk how much longer I will last before I fall asleep again.

Please don't tell me to stop the Adderall. It's the reason I've become aware of the "others". I need it. It's saved me multiple times.

Thanks for listening

While Adderall can cause you to feel good, even great, it's causing paranoia for you. You need help before things get worse with mania, more paranoia, psychosis. I am very concerned about you, Blue. Please seek help, Blue.

Yeah, I'm going to tell you to STOP taking the Adderall. It is causing you to be paranoid, and going without sleep is not a smart thing to do at all. Frankly, I believe you need medical help ASAP. Like, right now. You're in a dangerous state of mind, bluebicycle.

I'm still worried about you

I agree with the others. Please seek help.

This needs to stop, Blue. Get professional help. Please.

Still hoping the crash won't be too hard.....but you can help by going to ER and telling them you cold tur keyed your psych meds and started the adderall to chase hypo mania and are now in psychosis, they can help with the "others"

Write down everything to show T. Do you have enough adderall to last until you see your T? You have to pace yourself with drugs like that or you'll get addicted or run out. If you do run out what are you going to do? Does T have an emergency T you trust enough to talk to?

This is a terrible idea. The best chance to save her mind is for her to stop the Adderall immediately.

Victoria'smom · Feb 28, 2017 at 06:11 PM

If she not going to stop she needs to pace herself until she can see her T. If she is manic it's likely she's taking far more then recommended because she's trying to stay awake and issues with time running slow. It's so she doesn't accidentally OD.

Please get help. You are in psychosis.

Feb 28, 2017 at 07:12 PM

Ok. thanks guys. I will stop taking the Adderall. I only took 20mg of the XR formula, so not anything too high. That's what I was Rx'ed before

BUT ANYWAY, like I said in my other thread, I am destined to save everyone from the "others"

I can't go to ip because I have to save everyone first. I put everyone else before me. I mean, what if I go to the hospital and all hell breaks loose??

Edit: I can't, in good conscience, let the world crumble in front my my eyes. Like I said, I'm the savior. I'm actually the keeper of peace

Victoria'smom · Feb 28, 2017 at 07:17 PM

IP is short term. I don't think the "others" will be able to do anything in a weeks time.

Thank you for your words, but the "others" are moving very fast

I discovered them 4 days ago (ish), and I've only started to uncover and. understand their plans. They have a hit list, as I said. Who knows how quickly they'll move down on that hit list. It's a scary thought

BipolaRNurse · Feb 28, 2017 at 07:44 PM

Ohhh, honey. You need IP and you need it now. You've got to lose the Adderal permanently as well. When you come down from this paranoid ideation you'll realize what we are telling you is true---there are no "others", they are just products of an overheated brain. I've been through psychosis too, and I recognize it when I see it in someone else. PLEASE get help. Don't wait!

Wild Coyote · Feb 28, 2017 at 07:44 PM

blue, "the others" seem real to you only because they are a part of your current psychosis.

You are in danger of becoming a victim of your psychosis.

You must save yourself from the psychosis building around you.

In truth "the others" do not exist and there is no "hit list."

You can only save yourself, as your psychosis is placing you at risk.

You can save yourself by asking for help through your doctor or through an ER.

We all care and want to see you safely clear up from the confused, psychotic world starting to take over your sense of reality.

Do stop the Adderall.
Do get onto stabilizing meds asap.
Do call your doctor and explain your experiences or go to the ER and explain.
These people can honestly help you to "clear up" and be safe.

At the risk of sounding mean I dare to say, PLEASE, STOP THE ADDERRAL and find yourself some help

I'd like you to do yourself a favour. Re-read your original post but imagine someone else is telling you this. Does it sound reasonable to you?

Seriously, we are all very, Very, VERY concerned. Have you considered reaching out to a friend or family member? Perhaps someone would be kind enough to take you to the hospital. Perhaps if you were to call Crisis they could come and get you. I would really like you to get some immediate help.

Look, if there is nothing wrong they will send you good-bye, right? If you are fearing there is something they would keep you there for then you already are self aware that not all is right. I have been in hospital and it turned out to be the best thing I did for yourself. I've used these words around here before... You are worth it! You are worth having people help you.

Feb 28, 2017 at 07:54 PM

Thanks for your concerns, guys.

I'll contact my pdoc with caution. He has an after-hours service that I can talk to.

But I can't go to IP and I won't

*Laurie* · Feb 28, 2017 at 08:16 PM

It's okay, if you don't want to go IP. Just be sure to contact your pdoc today. Let us know when you speak with him so we don't have to worry about you, blueb.
