How many times have you had psychosis/psychotic episodes?
I’ve had four since 2017, but luckily I never got negative symptoms.
In some ways I liked being fat. The padding helps insulate. Being slim, one feels every little thing.

I got psychosis many times, the worst was when I stopped meds for over a year. I got more psychosis than # of hospitaluzations. I got hospitalized like 4 times, though I was brought by police and ambulance to the emergency more than that. A psychiatrist gave me extra pills and asked me if I wanted to stay, I refused, they released me.

Police got me twice. I got violent in 2018, and in 2019 I was wandering the streets, and telling a hairdresser about suicidal ideation.
I believe I went so far into psychosis, that it will never happen again, unless I take drugs, or get extremely stressed out.

Once 4 cops came to my house to calm me, I was punching walls in the basement and threatened to kill my brothers bcz they were stealing my energy and caused my sz. Now I dont believe that.

@anon84377678 Did you try low calories protein bars?
One makes me full from the time I wake up until 2pm.
The more protein and less calories the better.

I found that the higher protein they have the more full I am. At least for me but ppl say protein makes you feel full.

Lmao everyone is obese. These damn meds.
Jk tho the majority of the reason why I’m obese is actually from birth control not psych meds. Tho psych meds did make me overweight.

Couldn’t your partner just use protection instead?
I do not trust just using condoms. Very risky. Too many ways for it to go wrong. I have known many people who got pregnant using just condoms alone. In fact I have even known many people who got pregnant using both condoms and pill birth control. That’s why I use IUDs.

With a majority of szs being obese, how could pdocs continue denying that AP make gained weight and put the responsibility on the patient bad habits? This is clearly documented since the early use of AP in the 50’s. Fed up with the epidemic of lies and intellectual dishonesty.
