"The incidence of alcohol-related psychosis is much higher than with similar problems associated with cannabis".

I believe this is true. Sure, the plant gave me a little psychosis with a bit of memory loss during the high. But it was more like a first time trip and went away within a few hours and I quite enjoyed it.

Since I've stopped drinking about 6 or so weeks ago, I haven't been symptomatic. Even lowered my antipsychotic.

It's all a conspiracy that the plant is bad for psychosis more than alcohol. All lies.

Worst thing for me is benzos. They make me psychotic as hell. Alcohol in a pill.

Free the plant

I do not feel we had accomplished anything productive in awhile. She wanted me to tell her what i wanted to work on and i don't have an answer. We had been arguing sometimes and i had been going home upset. She offered for me to come in and just talk about my week, but to me that sounded an awful lot like paying her to be my "friend." So i didnt know what to do with her. So i ended it. I asked for my file, which she gave me (minus some insurance stuff) which included some items i had given to her personally, which hurt my feelings some. Yesterday i came home and cried myself to sleep. I am feeling somewhat better today.
I do not have a backup person, but i could ask for someone to be assigned to me at the clinic where my pdoc is. But i don't want anyone else.

Well, i would advise seeing how you feel after a few days. I think it's normal to be angry and hurt for those reasons. Try a pro/con listing and see which side weighs more.

Sometimes it takes a while to find the right t for you. Take a moment to clear your mind and you be ready to move on. good luck!
Thanks for this!

Morning everyone. Having a better day today. Don't feel quite so depressed and anxious. I see t today. Have to cut my appt short because my daughter has a science expo today and I have to be there. My son got in trouble again. He's now been kicked off of the bus so I have to drive him. It's a good thing I don't work.

Not feeling too good today. My bf thinks I've been feeling off since we watched a program with devil possession in it. It touched a raw nerve because that's what I used to have thoughts about.
Watched a Louis Theroux documentary to try and distract myself but it's finished now and I'm back in this world again.
I don't have any coping strategies to help, I either get sucked in or try to distract myself.
Thinking about faking taking my tablets. I don't want to take them. What's the point when I still feel like this when I'm on them.
Finished my book about a woman with schizophrenia. I've read a lot of books about mental health. It interests me, that's why I want to work in it.
Am I scattered today? I feel a bit scattered. My minds a bit all over the place.

feeling negative and scared. worried about going to work. the head bookkeeper texted me tuesday morning asking me why register 5 is 400$ short. i didnt know. i told her i didnt run on 5. she just said okay. im worried about whats going to happen when i get there. am i going to get written up? did i mess up and cant remember? am i going to get fired?

i question my ability to persevere if something bad happens. i am feeling very fragile and just broken down already. i dont know how i will manage a whole 8 hour shift if i get there and something bad happens.

i keep looking at toby and telling him i wish i was him. i know that will never happen though, and i have to just grow up and be an adult.

How fun! Have a great time. The zoo sounds fun for Sunday. I should go check it out. Saturday I have a graduation party to go to but free on Sunday. My kids are getting over the zoo, though.

Those morons at the clinic and pharmacy are playing around with my meds and refills.

I only have one capsule of Prozac left. And they did nothing to try to fill it. So here I am being dependent on yet another drug i now have to come off of.

Does anyone have a similar problem, or in the past, having to come off of Prozac/fluoxetine?

I've been on 10mg capsules , one per day, for 2 months.

Thank you in advance.

Evening guys,

Bought the Sims 4 earlier. All I've managed to do in the last hour is create a character.

Well... will be able to figure out how to actually play tomorrow. Hopefully it will be as entertaining as I remember early versions were... (i.e. not a waste of money!)

SSRIs aren't too bad. Your brain adapts to being on the medication a bit but they aren't addictive like benzos.

Stopping abruptly can causes some "withdrawal symptoms", but if you haven't been on them for too long it's unlikely to cause any major problems & they don't normally last long.

When can you call them to tell them you need a refill? I'm sure they will do it straight away if they realise they forgot to. These people are just humans... they can do stupid things sometimes too. I'm sure there is no malice behind it.

Thank you, Loial. I don't know why they aren't getting authorization from that rotten clinic to fill the Rx. He filled the invega! Why not the prozac!?!?!?

The new way they are handling this is that the provider gives the authorization to the pharmacy. It stinks because now they can fool with the scripts any way they want to, without the client knowing anything about it, or with the power to stop things like this.

Prozac withdrawal must be starting.

Pre-rolled joints delivered to mail box =]

Or I can go back on Lexapro/Cipralex.
