I’m back after med change

Man I went into my psychiatrist office and told him I wouldn’t leave until he helped me with my mania. I have a team of drs cuz I developed long qts. So, I totally pissed off im sure the people after me, but he and my cardio altered my meds. Ekg this week and vit b6 and e to help with tardive dyskinesia and same amount of artane. I have a nasty headache…basically feel like I have the flu. But getting 4 hours of sleep a night and being manic just wasn’t ok anymore. I really went into a dark place but finally got help because I was tired of being tired. Hugs to you all and apologies to any I attacked or was rude to. My drs really get scared cuz I’d been hospitalized last year with qtc of over 570. But I have to be able to still live. I’ve overcome so much in my life to be constantly thinking of killing myself and starting crap with people. Love ya all :hugs::heart:️ And I’m waiting to hear if my dog’s tumor they cut out is malignant or not. So, but I’m being strong for him and my other dog. I haven’t done anything self destructive. Just realizing life’s lessons

That’s good that you took a stand. I called my doctors nurse practically begged to be taken off haldol and to try something else.

have you tried ingrezza for tardive dyskinesia instead of vitamins and artane? or the other FDA approved drug?

I have “borderline long qts acquired. I have like no power over what my body can tolerate. One dose of theraflu for instance, could kill me
