Help! I’m getting breakthrough symptoms

Medications
1

My psychosis is coming back! I’ve been having breakthrough psychotic symptoms for a while now and today I drank both half an energy drink and a large bubble tea and it got worse! I’m wondering if I should take extra Amyloban? Because that’s what got rid of my symptoms in the past… I’m starting to feel hopeless… Latuda is the only drug I like!

Get onto your doc if possible. If you feel in danger or overwhelmed then emergency is good.

So sorry your struggling. You need to sort it out soon so do what you need to do.

Don’t worry about what is the past. Get some help in the now…get some medical help!

I thought Latuda was a miracle drug too until it gave me unbearable restlessness.

There are other good ones out there. I am on Amisulpride which is great for me. Not available in the states though.

I took more Amyloban and the psychosis is going away. I really don’t want to change drugs. I switched to Invega for a while and it was like I went from high functioning to low functioning really fast.

Have you been under more stress than usual recently?

I don’t know if I need the emergency. I don’t want to switch to something that causes weight gain, and it’s really slight…

I drank a lot of caffeine and lowered my Amyloban dose. I think I should wait till morning to decide because my caffeine levels are really high right now.

You might want to stay away from caffeine. It makes things way worse for me and some people just shouldn’t have it.

So I haven’t gone to the ER yet. My symptoms seem to have reduced in my sleep. I only have mild symptoms today. If I go to the ER, I think they will turn me away. They can’t do anything about my meds unless I stay over a few nights, anyways. Idk??? I kind of want to go just to try it out.

I’ve been hearing voices quite often recently and have been on and off depressed for nearly three weeks. This after several months of wellness. Maybe it’s time to see a pdoc for me.

Maybe for you to see your pdoc or call them will help? I hope you find stability soon :+1:
