I can feel myself on a downward spiral. I am depressed and unmotivated. I'm also having suicidal urges. I'm concerned that the entity that controls my thoughts is putting these ideas into my head. What should I do?

Check in with your pdoc. Maybe a med adjustment can help.

Yes. If you have a therapist please check in with them immediately. If nothing else try 911 Sounds like a psychiatric ER.

Didn’t you have a similar episode last year? I wonder if it’s a seasonal thing.
Get help for sure as soon as you can. Stay in touch with us too. |

I emailed pdoc to tell her about my symptoms. Maybe she'll suggest a med tweak?

When I got manic/started with psychosis last year I took a 4 day pulse of 25 mg more clozapine than usual and that stopped it. I was asleep for about a week but it was worth it. You know clozapine works for you so I would contact my pdoc and ask if you need a boost for your symptoms. Just don't let it get worse.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
