I've been on medication for 5 years and recently found a different solution to my problems so I'm in the process of getting off of my medication. It might be stopping my Klonopin but I've been more you could say emotional lately and sometimes when I go to sleep I'm afraid my psychosis will come back.
I use to think something was always watching me at night. Now you might think I'm crazy but I do believe in supernatural things and I don't believe all of it was in my mind. Still, there's a part of me that still thinks what if there is something wrong with me and it comes back because I stop taking my medicine. I don't like being on medication. At the time it did help me out of a tough spot but now it's making my life more difficult with all the physical side effects. It's just sometimes I can't sleep because I think it's possible it could come back. Last edited by _C2_; Aug 28, 2016 at 10:18 AM. |

I think that some anxiety is normal when you make the decision to taper off medication. I know that I've considered going off meds and I've spent a great deal of time wondering if it's the right decision or if I will relapse and end up worse than I was before.
Do you have a therapist? This would definitely be a good thing to talk to your therapist about and express your worries. Without being a professional, it's really hard to judge whether what you are experiencing is normal anxiety or if its the beginnings of paranoia type apprehension.

C2, I also believe there might be paranormal occurrences. It's very hard, though, to discern the difference between the supernatural and our possibly psychotic thoughts. It is for that reason that I hope you are in the care of a doctor and/or a therapist.
