Avatar m tn The biggest loser is my son he has seen neglected by her and has seen her violence and he is starting to mimic her. As of Dec 13 our lease is up and I am moving out with my son. Her family probably will not take her back and I feel bad but I can not take anymore of her violence towards me and my son.

Avatar f tn Anger can be a manifistation of depression but is usually considered more to the manic end of the spectrum. When you are depressed you may be angry but you likely lack the energy to do anything about it. He could just be angry about being sick and taking it out on the nearest person.

The psych kept doubling the anti-psychotic (seroquil) until he was eventually on 900 as well as other medications and he was unrecognisable, deffinetely a danger to himself because of his total disconnection to reality.
Avatar f tn There is a warrant out for my bd on a domestic violence charge I put on him almost 2 months ago. I honest to God am scared to let him anywhere near my child. Although I don't want to take my son away from his dad but there is something seriously wrong with him for him to be able to treat me how he has with our baby growing in me. I just feel like he really doesn't care about him and will be very careless.
Avatar f tn My partner and I have been together for 4 years. Our relationship started out almost like a fairytale, then turned into a nightmare. There was a lot of domestic violence, and he's now in prison for it. He's not serving a very long sentence as I've stood by him, withdrawing statements and trying to get him out of trouble basically. Due to the violence and stuff, no one in my family knew I was seeing him, and I didn't talk to his family either.

12268405 tn?1427853361 On April 2nd I made the decision to admit myself to a psychiatric hospital due to a psychotic episode. The thing that I'm having the hardest time comprehending is if I induced the episode or not. I convinced myself that I was covered in fleas, I heard voices saying my name and calling me worthless in the past, & I experienced paranoia. I don't know what to think right now. I wish I could know if I made the symptoms worse or not...

Avatar n tn 5 which I feel fine.. As of late I have been waking up with what my friend believes is psychotic episodes, moments of ultra confusion for me as I usually have no recolection. It is now getting to the point where I could hurt myself as I thrash about and walk into walls. I had a CT Scan which showed no problem. These attacks which I thought where TIA"s (Transient ischaemic attacks) mini strokes if you like proved otherwise..
Avatar f tn Not every breakdown is psychotic. I had a complete mental breakdown about 16 years ago or so which lead to 3 years of crushing depression - my illness course leaves me prone to this type of breakdown. However not being on meds? Dont know - i went nearly 15 years not on meds and i thought i was fine until I wasnt and went psychotic manic, so you might be fine for a long time as well. And I wasnt fine, I was hypomanic and looking back had at least 3 mini breakdowns and burnouts in that time.
Avatar f tn I am currently recovering from a severe depression with suicide ideation in which i apparently had psychotic symptoms.

Avatar m tn My pdoc yesterday told me it's possible to have a psychotic break from too severe anxiety. This scares me bad, what is that? Does that mean I'll go crazy and hurt someone? Myself? Has anyone ever had one of these? Also is there anyone here that has had several months of severe anxiety, then slowly goes back to several months of calm? I'm afraid this feeling will last forever. Just to make sure I'm experiencing this "anxiety" what does it feel like to u all?

Avatar f tn I am going to give a bit of my history and then I will have two questions that I hope you can answer: I was diagnosed as Bipolar in August 2008. At that time I was in an abusive relationship, became severely depressed and suicidal. I was also going into menopause at the time. I admitted myself to the psych ward at a local hospital and stayed a week. I was heavily medicated and saw a psychiatrist every day.
