I wish there was another way to fix thought broadcasting, the only way that I know how to do it, I can’t do it, neither left or right. It’s breaking me slightly. I don’t know why I can’t do it, every time I try, intrusive thoughts attack my brain and ruin my progress.
I’m so down about this right now, I feel useless and good for nothing.
I have a redundant brain and I add no value to the world No one will ever love me except for family, and even then I question whether they do. I’m scared my son will grow up hating me
Hang in there. If you are on meds maybe you need new ones. If you aren’t on meds maybe you need some. I’m really sorry you are going through all that. So just to get things straight, your mind is thought broadcasting? I have had and still do have some trouble with this. It’s rough. You are loved though and you do have value.
Just olanzapine, but I feel like I want to go on something for intrusive thoughts, then maybe I’ll have a shot at keeping positive thoughts, they just get in the way every time I try to do the right
I just feel like I’ll never get my life back, everywhere I go people respond to my thoughts and berate me. It’s humiliating, my voices have told me that olanzapine will help me to do the right, but it’s half of the work, maybe I’ll ask for a med increase screw the weight gain, I literally don’t care about that, just want a shot at a normal life
Like abilify, 10mg is the minimum theraputic dose of Olanzapine. So if you’re only on 7.5mg then maybe that’s the problem.
Oral Formulations Comments:
-Efficacy has been demonstrated in doses of 10 to 15 mg per day; doses above 10 mg per day were not demonstrated as more efficacious.
-Dose increases above 10 mg per day should occur only after a clinical assessment
If I were to stop taking 800mg a day I’d have to taper off it over a period of 2 weeks. In my experience you can’t get away with taking that huge amount and quitting cold turkey without withdrawals. I tried and nearly went bananas.
Hang in there and you need to realize, no one can read your thoughts or hear them.
I guess this medication is not working well for you. Please talk to your doctor asap. You also just had a baby, so you are in a very fragile place emotionally. maybe you are experiencing baby blues?
Please consult your doctor and like everhopeful said, it seems it is not the therapeutic dose.
L Theanine has decreased my intrusive thoughts significantly. I don’t think you should breast feed though. Try L Theanine, Sarcosine, NAC, these supplements are great.
I’ve had tb for 7 years. Idk what the hell causes it. Honestly it seems like part of my life. I suffer from it emotionally alot. Bit I think looking at things in a more natural way and not the nasty image we paint in our heads is better.
I totally destroyed my personality trying to change, thinking I was the problem. It can make you fome to alot of realizations good and bad but I don’t like the “agenda” is seems to be pushing. All the messed up stuff I’ve thought or let get to me always come up in them moments of pressure and sometimes peace. Just to destroy me. Try to always analyze the situation and try to make the best choices and be careful how much you’re feeding into it. There’s good people in this world don’t let yourself feel like you’re alone.
Stay positive. Remember that intrusive thoughts do not last so in the meantime try to keep yourself grounded in the here and now of the moment by occupying yourself with something that makes a difference to your wellbeing. Perhaps go for a walk when you are particularly distracted by your feelings; Treat yourself to something nice. Hold on to your accomplishments so far, whatever they may be. Plus, stick close to your family. They can be there for you as much as you can be there for them.
Thank you everyone for the comments, very helpful I found! I feel a lot better now, I’m going to speak to my case worker about it and see what he says aswell!
I’ve had thought broadcasting since I was diagnosed at 18. It’s gotten a lot worse in the last few months. It seems so real to me, people talk out loud making obvious comments about me or even yell my name. I’ve made some progress in my life and I believe I’m on the cusp of starting to make good money. It’s like people are persecuting me for the career I’m trying to get into. It really seems like a conspiracy as well because I have no explanation for how people are commenting and acting. They laugh at me like I’m a freak but they also contradict that with acting like they have good intentions for me.
I also have an MRSA infection which feels like it’s attacking my organs. I went through one round of anti-biotics that haven’t got rid of it, I’m going to need some more. The voices are basically mocking me like I’m as good as dead. They also act like even if I cure it and live a long life I will be worthless. There’s also a guy in high school who I hung out with but also bullied a bit and it’s like he’s getting his revenge on me. Almost like I deserve it.
Feels like everyone’s against you and that the med’s are just making them behave. It’s getting disturbing lately.
