psychotic

Avatar f tn Has anyone out there had a Psychotic Reaction to Lexapro during first week of treatment? I was given it for acute anxiety, within 24 hrs it crashed my into depression, I have suffered mild attacks of depression in the past, but nothing like this.
Avatar f tn My doctor changed my medicine to another anti-psychotic, and my pupils stopped getting large.
Avatar n tn Well, I'm not sure about that. Antipsychotics don't work right away. Tranquilizers do. Antipsychotics, if they do work, work all the time. Tranquilizes only work for a short period of time and then wear off. If she took this as an antipsychotic injection, it would be during an emergency situation but she would have to take the shots for several months and then go on the medication for longer than that.
Avatar f tn ve been diagnosed bipolar for about 2 years. I get horrible depression because of my bipolar. I recently had a really bad reaction to pot. REALLY bad. I almost killed myself, screamed at my friends, and vomited for 2 days. No one else that smoked it had a bad reaction. I haven't had a medication change recently. I'm on lamictal, seroquel, wellbutrin, cymbalta, and adderall. I don't know what happened. It wasn't laced or else everyone would have gotten sick.
Avatar n tn Severe pain in my legs started an hour after the test, and since then I have had severe pain in my legs for the last five hours. os there any connectio?
Avatar m tn Due to going psychotic on Lithium and having flat affect from Lamictal, I have been off all meds for several months now. My Psychotic Break a year ago this month lead me to try meds, but quite them, once I felt stable enough. I went to see my doctor and discovered I have 3 fractured vertebrae in my back, which explains a lot, my physical limitations trigger me.
Avatar f tn I have bipolar 1 with psychotic features. Is there any anti psychotic that doesn't make you gain weight? I am on risperdal consta 25 mg, and I have gained 35 pounds in 10 months. I am not on any other medication, and yet I keep on gaining weight. Does all the anti psychotic make you gain weight? Is there any anti psychotic that doesn't make you gain weight?
Avatar m tn last week my girl friend and I had sex about five times, and she wanted to used spermicidal condoms for extra peace of mind (shes also on the pill). I was her first partner and she was mine. Well yesterday I noticed these tiny red dots on the head of my penis, by tiny I mean some are the size of a pin head and bigger. today there are more but on the shaft as well.
634124 tn?1223576294 Ive tried to look up if all of these, dellusions, hallucination, the physical symptoms could all be the psychotic features of the bipolar but I havent been able to find much information. Could this all be due to the bipolar and specifically what are the physical symptoms that can manifest from bipolar psychosis. I dont know weather I need to be seeing a medicalnerologic doc or not. What seperates bipolar psychosis from schizoaffective and schizohrenia diagnosis.
Avatar f tn I would say at this point he is psychotic. If he has psychotic breaks at periodic intervals that can happen from say bipolar with psychotic features but only a psychiatrist can provide a diagnosis but at this point he should see one now. When someone has day to day variances of what they think of a person entirely (with nothing else changing) that can be a sign of concern as well.
Avatar f tn My most recent EKG and Holter indicate atrial fibrillation, and I will see a cardiologist next week. Five years ago, I used Adderall daily for about one year. I am male, 58 years old, with no history of cardiac problems. Is it possible that my previous Adderall use caused the atrial fibrillation that I am currently experiencing?
11236850 tn?1416445990 Oh wow, that is a problem. I do know that our systems and allergies can chance every five years, maybe this is your case. I sure would steer away from drinking if I had those reactions.
Avatar f tn After drinking only two I feel extremely full/bloated and as a result nauseous. This has happened three out of five times I have been out. I am not an any new medication but have noticed that it has been happening a week before my period is due. Is this just a coincidence?
Avatar n tn I suppose anyone can have a strange reaction to something but I've never heard of marijuana producing a psychotic reaction. People will have their underlying mood exaggerated by it, so if your son is anxious marijuana might make him more so. Much more so. And that can set off conditioned thinking, so such people should avoid it. But it sounds like something else to me or what you're describing isn't accurate, just an acute thing going on between the two of you.
Avatar f tn His doctor insists that the mental deterioration is a new symptom, but I am concerned it is more likely a drug interaction side effect. The use of anti-psychotic medications began about January 2008, when the patient (who had been taking Effexor, Paxil, and Xanax for mild depression, anxiety and insomnia) had a first-time ever episode of manic-type symptoms: racing thoughts, extreme insomnia, panic, and distorted thinking.
428506 tn?1296557399 ve had near constant difficulty concentrating, and can not determine if that is a symptom in and of itself, or a reaction to the other symptoms. All of my symptoms get worse when I lie down. The harder the mattress, the faster I experience stronger symptoms. If I get up, I improve quickly. Not that I feel good when upright, just less bad. I've been taking neurontin for a couple of months and it takes the edge off.
Avatar f tn or hyperactive that you can see things and hear voice and yet not be schizophrenic. I know because that was me for five years I was diagnosed with it as a form of bi-polar disorder. I have been off all anti-psychotic meds now since 1997 and take nothing but something for insomnia and am sober as well. But besides multiple medications related to bipolar disease I was on Thorazine for the hallucinations from 1991 through 1996. It is not BOTH. Schizophrenia doesn't just appear one day.
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...
1965148 tn?1354978634 can anyone share their experiences with psychotic mania or bipolar with psychotic features? i have no idea where mine are heading but they are here, and they are not backing down.
Avatar m tn my 22 year old son just experienced a psychotic break. I need to understand how he was feeling. Is there anyone who has personally experienced this, and would be willing to describe what you felt? I am desperate to understand what he is going through.
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. Has anyone else had psychosis without knowing what it was until speaking to your therapist about what was going on? and does anyone have any advice as to what to look for in oneself when psychosis starts?
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 n tn She is 20 years old and in college. Today she told me she felt like she was having a psychotic breakdown.What is this kind of breakdown?
Avatar f tn I really cant help if after the birth of her last baby, if she wasnt put on an antidepressant, and shes not having a bad reaction. News says she is in hospital now and try are trying to get a court order to force her to take the meds which she is currently refusing. Mabey SHE knows more than the doctors regarding whats making her act so bizzare...
