I must be annoying you guys lol. I mean I keep complaining about my symptoms and you tell me I should take meds and I say no.
No, I may not be possessed like people in horror movies but I am beginning to show signs. Apathy, laughing at horrible events, wanting to hurt myself for no reason other than the thought being planted in my head.
I am only 18 years old, I shouldn’t be living my life like this. But the voices, they are getting louder. It was a man shouting at me last night but I can’t remember what he said. Something nasty no doubt.
Anyway, apologies for the depressing posts.
This is not the person I ever wanted to turn into.
Much love to you all, you are the nicest online group of people I have ever met
People on this site usually have persistent problems. If you need to talk, then talk. One thing I think you should do is start to think where you’ll be five years from now, when you’re 23, and then think where you’ll be ten years from now, when you’re 28. Time will pass quicker than you think. What do you want out of life?
It’s annoying. Also stupid as you will permanently damage your mind if you keep this up. Your condition is VERY treatable, or would be if you were to stop behaving like a small child.
I don’t think you’re annoying I think you’re struggling like we all have at some point. I don’t think there’s anyone on here that just happily went on meds no fear one day with no questions fully accepting they were ill and then never had any problems with said meds and are still on them today. If so they are the absolute ideal patient and I’m sure their pdoc and mental health staff adore them lol.
It’s a constant battle. I think it’s normal to be scared of antipsychotics. They are powerful medications that can be deeply unpleasant to be on, despite the many benefits they can have.
