We’re trying clozaril started this week and no change so far other than its a hell of a sleeping pill and I’m having nightmares. I said I would give it a chance but I don’t want to anymore. I’m done with this I just want to leave. I saw my own dead body yesterday and its a sign I shouldnt be doing this.
I dont like PHP either the doc kept telling me to fight and then I heard him and a therPist laughing about how stupid I am and I don’t know what to do

mental health people are often cruel. I don't know why. can you go somewhere else? maybe get a family doc to prescribe a tranquilizer?

spike, Is it possible that seeing your body and hearing the mental health professionals laughing about you are both symptoms of your illness? Because you've been having a lot of that go on lately, if I recall correctly.
Thanks for this!

The clozaril needs time to build up. What dose are you on? I didn't feel better until I'd been on it a few weeks and it took even longer to really feel the effects. I'm now on 350 mg and it works great. I think I was on this much when I left the hospital, lowered it and went back up. My pdoc wants me on less but we'll see; I like feeling good.

I swear, I can’t stand hearing stuff like this. They are *JERKS* that need to belittle the people they are supposed to be helping because they are such scum-sucking bottom feeders that that’s what they need to do just to try to feel good about themselves!

I wish there was a mandatory firing for that kind of sh## because it is harmful.

There are a lot of anti-psychotics; call in your issues. It is *their job* to help you.

Going IP Allows for quicker med changes since your being monitored for side effects.

From what you have posted here you really should consider IP... your very unwell.

Stay safe

I'm not considering IP anymore. I'm not unsafe I'm just not functioning. I don't think the laughing or my dead body were part of my illness anyways. If you look up bipolar symptoms "having your pdoc laugh about your stupidity" isn't on the list nor is "realizing your imminent death"
Thanks for this!

no, i believe what you're hearing. i go to a community/public mental health clinic, and I've had people (not my counselor...other, random counselors) make comments, give me a hard time, etc. I've had far worse experiences w/ private practice doctors, though, so...I've kind of come to the conclusion that Mental Health, Inc. is filled with mean-spirited, mediocre people who need an ego boost, so they go into the field to label and control people. kinda makes sense....

When I was in IP....it felt like I was just cattle in an insurance collecting mill farm.

When I feel out of sorts I get people paranoid...the sinister side way glances, the supposed snarls, mocking laugh, name mentioning....all delusions. If I can catch it before I hurt myself....I’ll recognize it for what it is, block it out, and feel much better about it. Since my my mind is in pain...it’s trying to self implode to escape...(but I also have inner antagonist alters that likes to ride me down)- so I hope this helps some.
