Roll Call #79

I started losing my hair (too many med changes. I don't know which caused it) and I had so much hair coming out to the point where I refused to brush my hair. I started taking prenatal vitamins and my hair is doing much better. Way less strands now. I hope you can find something that works! Don't buy the way overpriced "hair growth" products. It's all just biotin and folic acid with random other vitamins. Biotin is another vitamin you can try. Like I said, don't get the kind that says its for hair and nails. Go to the normal vitamin section and you'll find it there for way cheaper. Like a box of the "special" stuff is $12 for 30 days but I can buy the same thing for $3 in the vitamin section and it'll last me 90 days.

Noted, thank you so much A I hope you don't mind I called you A for now, I am too dizzy to focus atm

Hey! What's everyone up to tonight?

I don't have history with seizures, I think it's because of Depakote. Feel weird too today, I am confused too

So the man I trusted so much. He always fought for me. He loved me and i believed in his love. Now he said it's over, I'm moving out tomorrow.

How do you guys know you're having seizures? I'm curious, obviously if there's someone around they could tell you but if you're on your own I don't know how you'd know. Also if that someone witnesses you having a seizure and you don't have epilepsy they should probably call an ambulance.

After I have one, I usually have a headache and my memory is super spotty for the next 4-6+ hours. The most obvious times is when I've scraped my back going down or something.

Well, this lists the side effects of withdrawing from Depakote...

Depakote (Valproic Acid) Withdrawal Symptoms + How Long They Last

It does say it can cause seizures in those with epilepsy if stopped without tapering right.

I guess a med that prevents seizures, makes sense that when that protection goes you might be more prone.

Does seem odd if you don't have a history of seizures though. Some other psych meds can increase the risk of seizures though, so it could be a combination of withdrawal & another med.

I would say it is worth follow up with your doctor soon though... you shouldn't be getting seizures.

I'm a little nervous, they put my diagnosis down as having an anxiety disorder and depression disorder even though I was diagnosed by several people as Schizoaffective, its supposed to be just temporary until I meet with the doctor and they do a full intake with me. I just am worried about SSI, they might see that and me moving into my own apartment as meaning I don't need it anymore....... They have me on the same meds though, Invega shot, depakote, paxil, seroquel and hydroxyzine.

I'm worried too. I hope everything will be ok for us both.

Hi everyone, I have been off the forum for a couple of months due to my SZA and paranoia being really bad. Just thought I would check in here since I came back up to read. I try to view this forum as a necessary part of my recovery plan, being a type of peer support. I will try to catch up and see how everyone is doing. I wish I could say I am doing better, but I am worse. I cannot even open my window blinds without feeling incredibly paranoid. My disability is now approved through January 15, so that's one less thing to worry about for a while.
