I don't know why. But I've worked myself up to the point where I'm throwing up. I've been searching for hours on similar disorders and non related disorders. I can't get past the thought that I'm not schizophrenic. If I was, why don't ANY antipsychotics work? The most any did was seroquel. The way I describe it is like turning the volume one notch down on a tv. I can't stop googling and reading link after link. Forums. Questions. Medical literature. It's stressing me out so badly. It feels like everything.. got louder. More intense feeling. I feel like I'm going to collapse inward. Is it dissociation when I'm sitting there but feel.. Like I'm somehow not fully solid? Like opaque? Does anyone know of any diagnosis that are diagnosed schizophrenia but it's wrong?

It took me 7 months to find the right medication for me. I did olanzapine, invega, seroquell, abilify and what not until I settled with phenilphenidate or something like that. It just takes time. Seroquell did absolutely nothing for me, and I was on 800mgs I think.
I used to feel unreal, like I'm living the afterlife, too. No idea seemed solid to me, nothing was real enough. It's way better now, I function more or less normally. Be patient.

Antipsychotic medication doesn't really help me either. Because I also have severe migraines I see a neurologist and I went through a lot of testing for epileptic seizures. Because of this I was convinced I didn't have bipolar with psychotic features and that I had temporal lobe epilpesy, as my only problem. I do have mild seizures but I do also have bipolar with psychotic features. It took me a while to accept this.
My advice to you would be to stop reading stuff online, its very scary and you can start taking on the symptoms you read. If you are concerned, go to your primary care doc and tell them your symptoms. Maybe seeing a neurologist if you haven't already would help you because many neurological issues get misdiagnosed as psychiatric ones. But if you get cleared by a neurologist, accept what they say |
