i need help

chasms · Aug 02, 2015, 09:36 PM

im having a very stressful night. i used to be very suicidal every day for months and all of a sudden, 3 days ago that basically stopped. especially today. but then i started getting lost in my thoughts. now they are all over the place. i feel like i can never win. i believe there is a group of people who are targeting me. they put a chip in my brain to make me seem mentally ill even though they are the ones who did it. the meds im given dont do anything. im on 160 mg of latuda of "schizophrenia" and it seemed to help at first (which is a whole nother story because i think i just created the illness myself if thats what it is but i dont think i have it) i think my thoughts are being messed with. they are at a certain frequency and people just mess with them to make it seem like something is wrong. they caused me to be suicidal. now im suicidal because i want to live in another realm. i cant live in this one. there are unlimited realities and that is making my head hurt . sorry this is disjointed. IF i am mentally ill then why is this all happening to me. i dont know what to believe or who to trust. i believe everything is symbolic and everyone in my life is just a symbol or offer some type of advice that i need. i dont know what to do help

Sorry your having a hard time. If its any consolation your experience is classic schizophrenia. Most I'd wager would have these exact symptoms , I had and I came back from it ( hopefully for as long as I live it will remain that way). I'm here now and I can tell you that it is the sz that is causing you these problems , basically your brain is not functioning as it did. You can get better though.

Good luck

i can see why someone would think that but what if i just made it all up. what if all these thoughts are an elaborate lie. i feel like im being controlled by someone else. they are contolling and altering my thoughts
plus if it WAS "schizophrenia" i barely have hallucinated so thats kind of important i think. it makes me think again that someone is just controlling my thoughts.

Hi, chasms. How long have you been on the Latuda so far? It took 3 months for Abilify to finally start working for me. Good luck.

I don't know. Are you hearing voices that you are yelling back at? I did that.

It usually goes in little waves for me. I'll have a couple or more days in a row where I'm hearing the voice when I try to sleep, and then it goes away for awhile again. Maybe that's the same phenomenon you're experiencing with your symptoms. It sounds like you're doing everything you can and should. I'd tell my pdoc about the return of symptoms and see what he or she says.

Oh, I don't know if I've done that, but I talk to myself and repeat things out loud. Everyone is unique. Some symptoms seem to be pretty common while others are more individual.
