And its a holiday weekend. I’ve gone to the doctors begging for help many times before, I can do it again.

Hope you’ll be okay… is it cause this time of year is stressful for you? What are your meds looking like?

Idk. Maybe. My niece is in the neuro ICU. She just had spine surgery for cancer. It was very stressful for me and I was symptomatic. My family was there.

Good on you for being there. I’m sure it took a lot out of you but you were there for the people who needed you. Hope you can rest and recouperate now.

My psychosis does seem to be getting worse though overall, unrelated to my niece and the holidays. It seems to have been building over several weeks or months. It might be related to a dosage decrease of Seroquel a few months back. And I forgot why my pdoc decreased it.
I see my pdoc on the 5th of January. I will inform her then.

Good idea. Always a good plan to keep our drs informed. I hope you start feeling better really soon @SkinnyMe

Sounds like a combination of lowering your Seroquel and your nieces health problems. Telling your doctor about this should be your priority.

Do you feel like she was trying to harm you intentionally? You know this is not true but probably paranoia.

I’m getting more psychotic or "spacey"each year. I’m 53 and I attribute it to age. I have had so much time, not working, and I feel I really must use it correctly. But I really can’t stand it if I get Alzheimer’s. I have no loved ones to care for me.

@Jinx. psychotic and forgetful are not the same things.
@Jinx I’m sorry you have no family. That must be very lonely.
Are you having trouble doing every day things? I notice that my cleaning skills get worse, if I’m not feeling my best. I also throw together the easiest meals I can.
My condition is slowly getting worse over time, but I’m otherwise stable. I have a low-level, untreated depression but I don’t want to take more pills…

I live with constant, mild to moderate, avolition, apathy, emotional blunting, social withdrawal and cognitive decline. So, no, my household and social skills aren’t that great.
