Thats interesting.

Cbd in low doses causes sleep. High doses is like sativa. Energy causing.

I see the clozapine clinic tomorrow, I could probably tell them what's happening and they might get me an appointment with a psychiatrist. I dont want my meds increased though so....idk

Ugh. I’m sorry. I understand not wanting an increase. Maybe if you can talk to someone you can nip it before that.

mood suddenly plummeted so im gonna go to my grandmas house. Will probably stay there until my appointment on thursday

ofthevalley · Mar 26, 2019 at 08:03 PM

I’m feeling off.
Not sure what it is. Can’t really put my finger on it. Not sure if it’s the death of my fil and the fallout from that or what. I just feel weird. Not symptomatic or anything ... I can’t even describe it.
I think I really need Spring to hurry up and get here. Things are always better when I’m not buried under 14 layers.

It’s possible it’s mood related......

Heart palps! This happened to me on Concerta at night. I thought to myself, "Why me? Why must I die unexpectedly?" and I switched to Vyvanse and they are gone.. because dextroamphetamine is safer for the heart than methylphenidate..

But Seroquel has it's own thing with Geodon of long QT syndrome so you should get your heart checked ECG. Ask to look at the paper when it comes out and read the "QT: 440ms" is max for a male.

Mine was as high as 455ms on escitalopram 5mg.. had to go off of it.. My moms heart QT interval was like 500+ which means high chance of heart going "Bloop" and stopping..

Not to scare you but I hope you're not taking high doses of Benadryl cuz that is bad for the heart and brain. Alzheimers..

With all my little knowledge about the heart.. you see why I'm obsessed... but lately I haven't been checking my pulse and taking caffeine pills.

My therapist was like "Yes, it's true that you have a flat affect" and I was sad because another professional confirmed it... I was sad when a psychiatrist writes "Poverty of speech".

I did cry in front of my treatment team once.. not sure what it was about but I was having a lot of hypno hallucinations and felt so tired like I was in a dream... "Up the Concerta to 108mg when you get to your outpatient pdoc.. I give you 60mg Vyvanse for now" well.. I walked out of the hospital dancing and feeling happy on 30+mg Abilify then "No insight to risks and inappropriate behavior" I got mad at him for saying that!

No no like I legit forget what it feels like. All I can do is imagine it but it doesn't register. It's a foreign feeling. I'm paranoid about nothing. I can't think of one thing that I'm paranoid about. Isn't that amazing? Yesss yes it is...

That's great

Desoxyn · Mar 27, 2019 at 02:23 AM

There's things that a normal person should be paranoid about but for me it's like my brain is soaked in sweet antipsychotic.

I think I might ask to try an off label antidepressant. I'm sick of feeling sad all the time.. although maybe I can appreciate music better.. idk... an antidepressant that isn't an SSRI or SNRI something like tianeptine.. but that's a legal research chemical.. oh no now I'm thinking about RC's again...

I need better therapy

Desoxyn · Mar 27, 2019 at 02:28 AM

I'm going to ask my psychiatrist about ECT

It would be free for me

Just to try it once and see what happens. Cuz my long term memory is **** anyways.
