Willow-this is the only thing i know about emotions: they don't HAVE to have a reason. They just are. You just feel how you feel and that's it. Then you should get to deal with them however you need to hat doesn't hurt others or yourself. If how you need to deal does hurt you or someone else then you should get the opportunity to learn a better way. That's all there is. There is no supposed to or should when it comes to emotions.

But let's says that you don't have psychosis which you don't seem to right now...you still have depression and that needs treatment...your other doctor whether he thought psychotic depression or sza still thought depression. If you remain untreated you may actually hurt yourself and nobody wants to see that. In my experience doctors associated with university hospitals are better than the others because they tend to keep up their training more. Second you old pdoc actually listened to you he never forced you to do things against your will...in my book that makes him a better human being and someone I'd rather work with. So write to him....even if you can't see him he might be able to give you a prescription...

I feel like the ECT lifted me a bit so I could go back to pretending to be ok, which requires a huge amount of energy, even though I didn't feel much better. But that can't possibly be true because ECT only works for biological depression and my low mood isn't biological...so they say... Quote:

I know this probably isn't the place to post this, but you guys all know me best. I was just saying to my wife how horribly resentful my mother was of any basic thing she did for me (us-my sister and I) . But i was also thinking how this laid the groundwork for me to be an awesome liar. In a good way.

I just saw Strange Voices on Netflix instant which is about a young women that had developed schizophrenia. It was interesting to watch because I watch it with my boyfriend and he pointed out the things that I did too like how I break things in a psychotic rage due to my delusions/hallucinations. With the things he pointed out, he demonstrated how difficult it is for people that are trying to help a loved one with schizophrenia can be. I felt kind of bad seeing what he has to deal with at times, but I'm not as bad as that women because I can still go to college and work (for the most part).

My boyfriend had a good question though. In the movie they mentioned recovering schizophrenics and he was surprised that some schizophrenics can become symptom less. He wanted to know how a schizophrenic would know they were recovered if they always take meds, would they have to stop and find out the hard way? I couldn't answer his question since I never met anyone who was seriously ill with schizophrenia become symptom less. I'm assuming this is more common in people that have a more milder case of schizophrenia.

I'm so stupid!!! I couldn't get to sleep until gone 5am, and so I didn't get up until 5pm, which means I'm never going to be able to sleep tonight and so it's just going to spiral on and on. Plus Dad is mad with me because he tried to get me to get out of bed and go out for a walk with him this afternoon and I refused, and I refused to tell him why I won't go out. Plus Mum keeps hassling me to come up with some goals for the OT on Tuesday even though I don't have any. FML!

![]() I know exactly what it is like to be ignored by psychiatrists. A misdiagnosis caused them to shrug me off, which was very frustrating. They accused me of making up my symptoms and explained that they were traumatic memories from uncovered abuse which was ********. This awful experience taught me keep my problems to myself and lie about what is going on. Lately I have been trying to understand my "illness". I have been wondering if I have one or not. My family doctor triggered all this when I saw her earlier this month for my stomach. It is hard not having a clear answer. The doubt I feel is unbearable at times. Can you find another doctor? It is very important that you be heard and respected. A psychiatrist is meant to work with you, not against you. When they come up with inane explanations it is because they cannot admit they don't know what is going on. Often this is because they failed to look at other possibilities. A lot of them lack the ability to question, observe and listen. They tend to get one idea in their head and fixate on that. When the diagnosis is wrong this can cause harm. If the explanation and diagnosis doesn't make sense it is time to get another doctor. Sometimes is right about psychiatrists affiliated with a university. They tend to keep up to date and are more reasonable.

Willow I hate when that happens to me. Usually when I have an extended period of time off from work is when I experience sleepless nights. Then it makes me sleep during the day hours and totally messes up my sleep pattern. What I usually end of doing is forcing myself to stay up in order to get my sleep pattern turned back around. It is a miserable process. I'm very sorry you are experiencing this right now.
![]() As far as goals maybe you can just start small. Like make the goal to turn your sleeping pattern around. Set a goal to stay out of your bed for a certain amount of time each day. For me I usually set up little goals to accomplish around my house. Like sort out a certain closet. Rearrange my bedroom. Wash all my bedding. Wash all my coats and laundry. Just small goals that accomplish something I needed to do and that gets me up and active. It might sound silly but when I get super depressed and don't feel like moving an inch this really helps me. Even small stuff like setting the goal to shower and wash my hair and shave my legs. To a "normal" person this is automatic. But to a seriously depressed person these tasks are extremely hard to accomplish. But I force myself and finally I am able to get back on track. This works for me. I hope and pray that you'll be able to find something that works for you. Hang in there! |
