Having a bad night!

I’ve been going in and out of psychosis the last 6 hours. Things are getting worse. My voices are getting louder.

Im sorry youre having a tough time. Do you have anyone around who can help ground you to reality?

I’m sorry you’re suffering right now. If it gets too intense can you call a crisis line or go to an ER?

Thank you @LilyoftheValley but I’m trying my best to avoid the crisis line since they send cops and the cops in my area just throw me into jail. And the ER will call the cops

Oh I hate that! Most people at the county mental health place I go to say the cops don’t usually get called. But I called once and the police came. It really sucked.

@LilyoftheValley yeah I’ve called many times and the cops treat me bad.

Cops are power hungry and often brutish and unethical

Thats sad. Cops should be more understanding of people with mental health issues and more empathetic overall

Hang in there, and call your pdoc in the morning. You definitely need a med adjustment

@zwolfgang that’s the thing I ran out of meds and can’t get a refill till tomorrow

Is that why youre hallucinating? If so that might be kind of a good thing because that would mean the meds are probably still working

Either way I would get that refill as soon as possible and then let the pdoc know what happened

@zwolfgang I don’t think i’ll get any sleep tonight. But I’m trying to push forward

I don’t want to disparage your suffering, but what you’re going through is something many sz’s face. Life is hard for us. Do you have a case manager you could call? Or a sibling to keep you company? Going through these kinds of nights alone is rough.

@crimby I can’t call anyone right now where I am at it’s 3:30am at night. I’m on my own, my siblings don’t really care about me :disappointed_relieved:

I went back to bed and got a couple more hours of sleep. I’m sorry I wasn’t around to post to you. If you’re worried about the time you would have to call a crisis line, they’re pretty much an all night affair. They’re used to being called at all hours. If you don’t have any local crisis lines, I know that they have nation wide crisis lines. You might check it out in your phone book. What you’re going through is something that a lot of us can relate to. I know I’ve made extensive use of the crisis lines. A lot of us know how painful it can be to be alone and in crisis late at night. Keep posting here. We can relate.

You might try L-theanine in the future. I know it won’t help you now, but the woman who sets up my med’s missed both my Geodon and my Seroquel a few weeks back, and the L-theanine got me through that.

I know how you feel. I’ve called 911 on myself before, because I was suicidal. The police know me now. They just ask to see my hands. They don’t cuff me anymore. I’ve never been in jail…just taken to the hospital.

Pm me if you need help
