I don't know what to do about this seroquel. I take 400mg of it but I'm worried because I'm gaining weight

Weight gain is nothing if you’re stable. It’s what my doctor tells me.

I have tons of books on my goodreads list, next time I get on my laptop I'll make a list and post it for you

Oooh thank you. Thank you!!!

Yeah, I think it's worth it but the ED part of my mind gets scared about the gaining. I guess the best thing I can do is accept that I need the meds, be mindful of what I eat and get exercise. I need to be more realistic about the fact that I am stable and that may mean some more lbs but it's okay and isn't the end of the world or make me a bad person

I’m there with you. It’s hard but rather have a few extra pounds than be paranoid and delusional and generally out of control.

I got anxious today. I’m working on getting my full drivers license but I’m nervous about it. So I’ve been driving home from work.

Today I had trouble focusing and felt anxious while driving. We made a stop and when we we’re leaving I asked my mother to drive instead because I wasn’t feeling it.

It broke my heart I almost cried I just couldn’t do it. Letting my anxiety get to me. I’m supposed to be getting better not worse.

falcon09 · Apr 22, 2019 at 09:56 PM

Had no anxiety while registering for classes today.

I think it was the Haldol, and akathasia instead of just anxiety, I can never tell the two apart.

So I'm gonna stop taking the Haldol and just stick with the Geodon, hope the doc is okay with it

sorry but this is dumb. idk how serious you're being but eating disorders aren't a lifestyle choice. they literally kill people

Good morning, actually slept last night

Blue_Bird · Apr 23, 2019 at 10:50 AM

I have an interview with that apartment I've been trying to get in and am getting a tour of the building!!!!!

falcon09 · Apr 23, 2019 at 12:02 PM

Going to a baseball game tonight with my dad.

Gonna spend the night and come home the next day on his lunch break.

Hey everyone. How are things going?

Going into day 13 of this inpatient stay after tonight. It feels like an eternity and a flash of an eye. My depression is more under control.

Possible trigger:

I was extremely suicidal earlier in my stay and upon intake.

I was diagnosed with psychotic depression and it would seem to be the case. The better my depression, the better my psychosis. I had a wave of insight a few days ago and then regressed back into psychosis. Now I’m in another wave of insight and mixed state and its driving me nuts. I want the answers of reality to be clear cut. I want the voices and visuals to go away. I want to be in control of my mind. It’s been a trying couple weeks.

Hi everyone, went to Disneyland yesterday...by myself. I was supposed to go with a friend but her hubby got sick so I went by myself. Actually I don't mind. I get to do what I want to do when I want to do it. It was a nice day, the crowds weren't too bad, and the weather was perfect. Traffic sucked. I forgot what it's like to drive in the cities. I'm used to being in the rural areas. I'm suicidal today though. Sometimes that happens after I get to do something fun then it's like, the next day I pay for it. Like I only deserve bad things to happen to me, or something. HUGS Kit

Possible trigger:

I'm being completely serious but my motivation isn't. I've had a low grade eating disorder for years but never went through with it. I was anorexic because of stimulants and felt good. I don't care if I die. I'm not going to live long because of my heart. I will do anything self destructive like jump off a cliff. I have no fear. I'm a burden to my family and society I should just die. The way that it happens doesn't matter to me. My family needs to put their feelings aside and find a way for me to do it properly

But whatever.. I suppose I'll live anyways and be a burden which is painful at the least. Living might be the most selfish thing I can do.
