I use the internet a lot but I live in a very rural area and don't have a lot of choices in stores here. Stores are hard for me to handle though so I'm happiest when I can avoid them.
Do you ever feel paranoid about your therapist or pdoc? __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, GAD, OCD. Clozapine 250 mg, Emsam 12 mg/day patch, topamax 25 mg, ,Gabapentin 1600 mg & 100-2 PRN,. 2 mg clonazepam., 75 mg Seroquel and 12.5 mg PRNx2 daily |

A. Only when very unwell. I have accused my doctors of conspiring against me and making up my diagnoses.
Q. Are there many people from outside the USA on this website? |

I just can’t face Christmas yet. Last year was very stressful and I’d just as soon crawl under a rock. (Sad)
Q. If you could be anyone in the world for a day who would you be? |

My Support Forums is the online community that was originally begun as the Psych Central Forums in 2001. It now runs as an independent self-help support group community for mental health, personality, and psychological issues and is overseen by a group of dedicated, caring volunteers from around the world.
This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
