They didn’t agree to switch my meds

They detained me involuntarily because I wanted to go home. I wasn’t hurting anyone or myself
And they just keep increasing the Clozapine dose

That’s a shame I’m sorry that happened to you :pensive:

Maybe you need a higher dose of clozapine and they’re just trying to help you.

I don’t have any delusions anymore so dunno

You just posted about you having paranoia. Clozapine treats paranoia

Welcome to life. I went from doing fine on no meds to being stuck on Haldol at the moment. Not my fave med, but the difference between you and me is that I have learned I do better when I don’t pick fights with my doctor. I’ll get back to where I was within a month I hope.

I didn’t fight I was chill and wanted to leave

For me they did this once where I was not controllable by anyone within the family. It is strange for your situation. Anyhow, hope you do well…

You have a history of being belligerent. It will take time showing them over a long period of time that you’re compliant before they trust you to not be like that again.

I took my meds as prescribed so I don’t know what I did wrong when I told the nurse that I wanted to leave because I felt like the ward didn’t help me…

I bet your body language was at odds with what you were saying. It’s a problem people with autism have, LOL. (I have it.)

Taking them right now doesn’t erase your long history of fighting the system. You’ll need to be compliant over a long period of time to get them to trust you

Okay I understand that but I think the detention was an overreaction

I don’t. They need to be sure you’re treated properly and have enough insight to take your meds

Part of schizophrenia is lacking insight. Maybe they believe you are psychotic

I’m 18 so thought this can’t happen

Isn’t 18 the age when people become adults in europe?

Regardless, I’m sure they’re trying to treat your psychosis. Trust your doctors and nurses.

My nurses saved my life when I was in psychosis. I had the best team ever.
