Can I just say as well that I truly cannot walk and I get zapped totally if I force myself to rush when I walk. I try to keep up but all you hear me say to my family is slow down. Slow down to snail like.
Getting from one terminal to another in the airport is a nightmare. I can’t stick the pain and cannot walk there. I definitely will need assistance to get there. I am just so slow and this dizziness, wobbly, swaying, drunkenness gets so much worse if I force myself to get from A to B. It’s horrendous
Thanks LED, I will try it. You are very good to send me it. I really cannot walk LED. It’s near impossible.

I think something is very wrong when I cannot walk. I mean the Abilify is not helping that. I tell you I do be near collapse when I walk. I try to very hard and it’d the same every time. My legs buckle almost. I have to stop and start. It’s hard LED very very hard to lose what was once second nature to me.
Why in God’s name don’t they know why this is happening and why the drunkenness gets worse when I try to walk. Is it any wonder I’m confused about everything. I’m taking my medication hoping this will get better too. It’s not. I’m left to grin and bear. I believe at age 48 it’s not normal for this to be happening to me.
Things will become clearer my psychiatrist said. Am I really imagining that I can’t walk?

I don’t know why I can’t walk! Can this happen in schizophrenia?
@LouLou1, please listen to your doctors. Your symptoms aren’t those of schizophrenia. They do sound a lot like hypochondria, including searching out symptoms online and attempting to shoehorn your case to match. Your doctor has asked you to refrain from going to internet sites and doing this, and it’s clear that being here is harmful to you.
Not being able to walk has nothing at all to do with schizophrenia.
I understand. But I’m in a lot of trouble when I cannot walk. What am I supposed to do? Not search for why I’m almost paralyzed if I walk?
I don’t understand it nor does anyone. I’m listening to my psychiatrist but can he make me walk again I hope he can. I will leave you guys alone and just stick with my psychiatrist for now and ask him to provide assistance of some sort for me to get around. He said I have a disability.
You need to talk to your doctor. We can’t help you, and it’s doing you harm to be here. You are here in direct contravention of your doctor’s orders. I’m going to close this thread now - please don’t reopen it.
Try the website for people with hypochondria, like @LED suggested.
