Paranoia - I left work

And I’m not going back until I am better. The paranoia got to a point where I’d think people are saying nasty things about me when it’s just not true. I told my manager it’s not fair on others that I’m accusing people like that. I think this the first psychosis since 10 years.

I am off work too at the moment. I was starting to get irritated by other people as well and it was showing.

The doctor signed me off for two weeks.

I’m lucky in that I won’t get signed off it’s zero hours but I feel so bad she wanted me to come in some days but I think I need out.

If you need a break you should take it. No point in making yourself worse otherwise you might be off for longer

@anon80629714 I’m sorry you’re struggling. Try to rest and get your stress level down so you can get better faster. Do you have an appointment with you pdoc set up already?

Next week i am seeing a pdoc let’s see. I’m so scared. I think it’s psychosis. And if it is I think it’s not bipolar anymore. I think they’ll get rid of mood stabilisers. The paranoia is very subtle.

I have psychosis and take a mood stabilizer, maybe they’ll just add an ap like Abilify or something like that.

@anon80629714, It’s very possible to have both Bipolar and schizophrenia at the same time. I do. It’s called schizoaffective, bipolar type. I think you were diagnosed with that before weren’t you?
