Is this will get better?

i am pacing a lot in the house… only rivotril camls that down a little bit. even on a correcteur(akinetone) i pace. its new still haldol for me… i feel worried and excited plus my head is toootally crushed- i forgot things, sometimes dont even listen to others, the socializing tires me… i saw my sz frien today, shte doesnt take her meds anymore and told me not to tell her parents this. i told it just once that she doesnt take them but its probably not my job anymore… i am still really paranoid and i feel like i feel my brain inside my head. probably overthinking…
iam taking your advoces now :slight_smile: i am not sure that i am better on this 20th day of haldol…

Hey Anna, hang in there. It does get better. I am learning that wanting less brings peace. Don’t compare yourself with others. Personally, I want to work on my mood and my thoughts. I want inner peace. I used to suffer 24/7. Now, I haven’t suffered in like 3-4 weeks.

you believe in meds astefano? my brain is like tightened :confused: .

For some, they help.

and if they dont help me,what do i do? stop them?

First and foremost, talk to your doctor. But if you stopped them, would you suffer more or less? I suffer less on medications.

I worry about you @Anna1 - Hang in there and talk to your psychiatrist with any concerns you may have.

Feel better :sunny: :rainbow:

thank you wave. i am not so suicidal but i dont feel fine,yes… i have so many questions in my head plus the difficulty to talk. i tried too many aps,almost every atypical plus typicals… i think that the psychiatry cant help me really. its still too soon to see progress from haldol- just 20th day that i am on it but for example i was struggling today between my idea that my sz friend is reallly crazy and between the desire to stay just positive :confused: . and with this,my head will explode,i asked her to leave after 2 hours…

I always feel my brain, 24/7. It’s definitely alive, but docile, and I get aches, cramps, and many other styles of pain in my head. I don’t know why, but I’ve learned to accept it.

As for Haldol, I couldn’t stay on it. You managed 20 days of Haldol? That’s more than I was able to handle. It was too strong of a drug, always caused seering & aching pains in my head.

yeah,its even better than clozapine. on clozapine i stopped eating and my paranoia was even worse… probably i am quite anxious and really schizo to handle haldol,yeap…:confused: i am praying for relieve, i am running after this,probably i shouldnt do this and think less. dont know… i have too many issues- negatives symptoms, cognitives problems, derealisation, depersonnalization, anxiety, paranoia :/. i am wondering if someone who had my symptoms got better?.. i am continuing my haldol, its too soon to tell how i feel on it. the only thing for now is my pacing at home when i am around people(my mom). otherwise,i live alone in my apartment, my mom is in an another apartment but in the same building :slight_smile: .

I think you’re beautiful just the way you are…@Anna1. :wink:

oh, thanks patrick,its nice to hear that :slight_smile:

What is going on with your group therapy Anna?

I’ve had to pace when I was on a number of the old generation, typical anti-psychotics. I could not sit still. Maybe you should try one of the newer atypical anti-psychotics. They are much better about not having bad side effects.

we still dont have it. one of the cotherapeutes is ill… ill go if we will have it i suppose. it helps probably yes :).
crimby,i cant handle some of the atypicals - for instance i dont like abilify(even that i have mostly negative symptoms but i got anxiety also and paranoia), seroquel, zeldox… probably if haldol doesnt work,ill try invega. for the moment i handle haldol. maybe akathisia will pass for me,i know that it depends on the person.

i talked to my pdoc at the phone, she told me i seem a lot better…in fact i am angry, my mom tells me that i am stupid cause i dont get politics :/… and the result is that i am angry. i hope my mood will get better :slight_smile: .

i have a friend who is nurse in psychiatry, she told me that there is nothing precise in this science. in two worlds, my recovery is not sure… i feel like my brain is crashed :confused: .
