I have just had a minirelapse where i was triggered by a scary nightmare and got psychotic again at night. I was in a ward for a day. I cut it short with meds but it left new fears again - fear of relapse, fear of hurting my son, fear of God being angry with me.
This was last week. I saw the nurse yesterday, but now only the 14th, cause she is on holiday and busy.
Im wondering…arent they supposed to monitor if im not relapsing? I see a doctor tomorrow to discuss diagnosis…shall I ask for a meeting with someone else in between? I dont trust myself and think 3 weeks no contact is a bit much at this specific time.
Marian,
I’m so sorry! I know you were worried about relapse! I think you should ask to be see as soon as you can. You need as much support as you can get.
Thanks for your concern, im okay now, sort of. I think they should see me more too. The ward was horrible, i just stayed there for one night, to make sure i didnt get psychotic nightmares again.
Im still processing all, but not psychotic anymore (I think).
Take care of yourself. I have a doctor who is very responsive when I call him. He knows when I need to see him right away. I hope you find good care. Stay safe!
