Find a Group

I think your closest group would be Portland...we have a few in chicago though...this may be due to how differently we treat people around here...

Being 18 is so confusing. :S I still have no idea where I want to go to school because I can't even decide what to study! Oi vey...
Ur my sons age, lol.

I say go for ur dreams.

I always wanted to be a history professor, or a psychologist. I say go for something that doesn't feel like work.

I didn't start college until I was a little older, like 23. My son is going to be starting in September. Sometimes I think it's better to start when ur a little older, bc u change what u want to do.

I loved my college days. So far those were the best yrs of my life. I only went to a community college, but I loved it.
Thanks for this!

Second the things I say to my nurse, if I dont say stuff about it, there is no proof, right now there is a lot of it. Without it when they do kill me, people wouldn't know why, now they will.

Well that's my reasons.
U do belong here.

It's just not safe to be carrying around knives. I know u don't feel safe unless u have them...But for any kind of mental health worker they have to cover their butts. If I was carrying a knife around, they would want me to stop too.

I'm really sorry u feel so scared.
Thanks for this!

Ok, I've got to get ready and shower, I see my new case manager today. Wish me luck that I get one that's not too overworked. I really want to get in some groups. They have one on meds and metabolism. That's what I really want to get in, bc it looks like for at least the next yr I'm gonna be on some kind of ap.

Hope everyone has a good day.

And for those struggling.
Thanks for this!

Is this because of what your mother said about your weight? If she had not of said that to you would you have stayed on your medications?

Newtus you haven't made any videos in a while. Do you think making some would help you?

I just checked your blog and you haven't written there since November.

I'm just wondering if talking about what your dealing with would help you...

You'd probably receive lots of great, helpful advice
Thanks for this!

What do you value more, weight loss or your life?

Getting off medications can result in a psychotic episode that can KILL YOU. You're already on edge and have been on edge even when you were taking your medicine.

Also, I really hate to say this but you sounded a hell of a lot better when you were on the injections. Sure you still had issues but you sounded better.

There's a reason medications exist, they are there to help. I know, I'm a huge hypocrite and need to work on medication compliance myself, but still... you are risking your life here. Also, you don't want to spiral into an eating disorder. That will just make EVERYTHING worse(voice of experience talking here), and I do mean everything. You'll stop sleeping at night because you're starving, which will then make your psychosis even worse. It's not a good cycle.

Sorry for the blunt post, I'm just worried about you and I would hate to see you back in the hospital and then back on the injections that you hated so much. Why not just take the pills and have some control over your life? I know it sucks to take them, but without them you are in trouble. Every time you've gotten off your meds you've gotten into serious trouble.
Thanks for this!

I have to agree with everyone about this. It's really frustrating to see u do this to yourself again.

Omg, I just saw somebody from my past that I didn't want to see. I'm all nervous, shaky, and a little paranoid. I was supposed to increase the latuda today but I'm gonna wait and do it tomorrow.

I just took a risperdal...dammit. I hate this feeling, and the risperdal and weight...Ugh it seems so overwhelming sometimes.

I was just thinking, I've been trying to convince people for a while and it still hasn't happened yet.

Really though to say I'm sick and lack insight - is just effin ignorant.

I tell them what is going on and this is what they come up with, this makes me more sure that they are involved, the Drs, nurses and hospitals.

How many times do I need to say that I'm not sick.
