How do you go about canceling your account? I haven’t been using the site like I used to, While the site has been helpful in the past, I’ve been having too much problem finding the motivation to come on and read everything, let alone respond to much. Or does it matter if you stay as a member and don’t post any more? I don’t know.
No - it doesn’t matter if you remain a member and don’t post any more - you can just come back when you feel like it. No problem.
I will miss you and so will many others! Take care!
Okay, I think I’ll leave the account open for now. I was feeling bad for not posting, but I’ve just been trying to get back to normal after every thing dealing with my last hospital stay was calming down. Jan 20th - Feb 20th I was in the regular hospital with pneumonia, bronchitis, and they found a large mass on my thyroid that gave me a huge goiter. I was unconscious for about a week. Then I had a month of home nursing + psychical, and occupational therapy. My voice still hasn’t fully recovered and just went to the doctor and they found a polyp on one of my vocal cords I have to go in and have surgically removed.
I suffered a bit of trauma in the hospital. I want to believe I imagined the whole thing based on my schizophrenia, but I don’t think it was…One day a nurse came up to me with four other nurses and said they weren’t going to let me leave the hospital, because I was too much of a burden on my family and didn’t deserve to live. Then I had a feeling they were pranking me with other things I felt something funny on my head but she told me there was nothing wrong…I was restrained because when they said they were going to kill me I pulled hand off the restraint in the bed and tried fighting back…the was drugged. I had no proof this really happened, it would be my word against hers…she had friends with her. I was alone. I also told them I had schizophrenia which I believe is why they chose me to pick on.Who would believe of verbal complaints from a schizophrenic vs four registered nurses?
@sohare1981 Sorry to hear about all your experiences + am glad that you are here to report them. I don’t post much, but wanted to say that the site seems to be different than it was back when you were a regular poster. Though that could be just my perception. I’m trying to keep up too. I’ve experienced something of what you say about not being believed vs others by way of having sz… I hope that you manage to get your physical and mental health where it needs to be, I know you were having a hard time when were around in the past. Hopefully you can continue working with your Dr on getting your meds worked out. I have thought about you since you, since you’ve been ‘missing’. Hope you stay or come back.
I’ll stay, I don’t know how often I can post though. They changed the way I do my medications at the hospital, right now they have me on the regular/generic form of Seroquel, same 400MG twice a day, but instead of taking them at night I take one in the morning at breakfast and one in the afternoon at lunch. I’m also on Lexipro 20MG. For a while they had me on clonazepam,
But I ran out of those and haven’t been to my regular psychiatrist to get a new prescription for them and the hospital doctor didn’t renew the drug. I seem to be doing a little better some days. But I don’t know, maybe my doctor will put me back on clonzaepam and it would help manage my stress/anxiety. The other thing I’ve been feeling strong on depression lately. No reason…I guess I’m frustrated my voice isn’t fully healed like I thought it would be by now. I’m also worried about the surgery to have the polyp removed. `
