    It's me (or is it?)

    Hello my Friends.
    I'm home.
    I won't go into detail but after another psychotic episode again on Friday/Saturday night I ended up in the hospital.
    The Psychiatrists (after many years) have now decided that I do Have Schizophrenia,my brother has already taken the out of me.
    So having upped the doses of the antipsychotic(Quetiapine)and anti depression(Effexor) medication, I am now also taking Lithium(you know you are messed up when they give you this).
    The thing is I feel nearly fine,just a bit doped.
    All the best.
    Ralph. :smiling3:.

        Good to have you back Ralph. Trying to see the lighter side of your issue but are they trying to brighten you up with Lithium batteries...sorry don't know my meds...I think I need a taxi.
        Seriously I'm glad you're back and wish you well.

        Cheers,
        Richard

          Great to see you back. Spike Milligan took lithium. He used to call it his wonder drug.

                      I have a friend on lithium , he is fine but they need to keep track of your levels , and all should be ok.
                      Good luck , it will work out.

                        Hi Ralph it’s great to see your back to some normality. I understand where you are coming from as I work as an RMN with people and patients with a wide variety of mental health issues.
                        Im pleased it sounds like they are on board with your medication but the down side is sleepiness. If you need someone to speak to just contact me.
