Alright so my name is Tim and I am from texas. When I was 9 years old I was diagnosed with a few mental illnesses. Bipolar/Adhd/Anxiety/Schizotypal or Schizoaffective.I soon went to a psych hospital at the age of 16 due to our house catching on fire.So when i got there my medications were out of control and ended up throwing a chair at a huge window. Then got a cocktail xD Anyway so a medication in that cocktail was called Haldol and gave me Torticollous. Where your neck kind of twists to the side D: So as you can see medications have not worked for me in the past and still do not.Lets move on shal we.
So as the years went on like i said things got worse with this truggle and i continued to get side effects from the twilight zone. 3-4 years ago I started getting a high white blood cell count everytime i went to this psych hospital. Which was odd becuase it means you have an infection such as cancer/or an immune problem. Knowing all this is finally got to the point about a lil over a year ago to get off antispychotics and try mood stabilizers. Messed up thing is that mood stabilizers caused alot less severe side effects. Got to the point of actually not feeling lobotomized for a change since 6 years. Lets move on shal we.
So I ended up getting sick at some point from then til now where i had to go to the Er at my mothers work. Ended up going there and was sent back to this psych hospital due to being dillusional. They did not test my issues and just called a psych eval out! Went to the psych hospital and was put on an antipsychotic called fnapt. Got diareeah up to 15 times in one day. Sometimes orange or yellow. In the midpoint of that day on fnapt i was slurring and seemed to be going blind. Got out after being taken off and put on geodone,got home, and got sick again.
So for the past 6-7 weeks I have felt utterly sick as if i was dying. I would go to sleep for up to 16 hours in one day. Everytime i would eat or drink anything I feel sick as a dog. Naucias,diareeah,influenza type feeling/confused/Peeing Sperm D : //////dirstorted/energized when not eating,lightheaded,dizzy,and weak, seem to have a fever but dont,Bloating,and weight loss........ I went to my psychiatrist and he said that in the pervious psych hospital the lab results said my liver enzymes were extremely high. My adopted father has liver cancer ect. So i do show signs of those issues as well. I show symptoms from brain tumors. Truth is I show signs from alot of other illnesses that I dont have. WTF!!!! So I have come to the fear driven reality of seeking out more help from my fellow internet friends. Tell me what you guys think. Also That my sister seems to be having similair problems and was diagnosed with psuedotumor cerebri but was falsely diagnosed apprently. So Thanks!

Hello Tim,
from my own experience, antipsychotics definitely are the medications that cause worse side effects imaginable. Your white blood cells count is one of them and even though I was never pregnant or anything - I had started lactating while they were giving me sulpiride to make me start eating. I know you heard it yourself, probably, i was to continue that med because 'it was for my own benefit'. And the thing is, they were just experimenting with everything unil they find out which one worked - for me it was lamictal (bipolar depression).
Sorry if I didn't quite catch what you were saying - but what is your current diagnosis?
Wish you all the best,
Nicole

Thats the thing Docs have no idea what is going on and I am supposed to go to a doc this week. Just gotten too the point after everything to not trust docs for help anymore. I have been diagnosed with Bipolar/Adhd/touretts/schizotypal personality disorder.Every damn medication either seems to labodomize me or just cause horrific side effects as listed above.: Everytime i would eat or drink anything I feel sick as a dog. Naucias,diareeah,influenza type feeling/confused/Peeing Sperm D : //////dirstorted/energized when not eating,lightheaded,dizzy,and weak, seem to have a fever but dont,Bloating,and weight loss. I have been compliant with my medications for the longest time, but all this is too much for me. I mean for gods sake I was in a 4x tshirt/pant size 52 in under a year ago. Now I am almost down to a 1x and pant size 40.

Also every time i take an anti psychotic medication I get this really bad eye problem. tar dive dyskinesia along with eye twitching and it was very unsettling. Every time Id go to sleep i could not shut my eyes and had to go to the er for that as well. So I have been taking these dumb medications for a very long time. I have Edgar Allan Poe's blood and me and a long line of mental illness. So I was born into this notion of taking medications, but what is odd is when I get off of them I don't have manic episodes/No voices/No phobias/ No Paranoia/No Social Phobia and It is just very very strange.

I have basically been on every medication there is. Whether it be Antipsychotics/Benzos/Stimulants/orMood stabilizers so trust me this isnt normal.

Now that i think about it I was first diagnosed when I was 4 with adhd . Then at 9 with bibolar then followed Tourretts syndrome/Schizotypal. Also that I fluncuate from Schizotypal to SchizoAffective when on certain medications which isnt normal. Schizotypal and Schizoaffective are Sub disorders of schizophrenia and have little effects depending on which spectrum/disorder you have. Schizotypal is more off the phobias and not actually hearing voices. Schizo effective is more on the lines of hearing voices and seeing things along with dillusions. Although I have these illnesses I can assure you everything I have told you guys is true and this c**p brings someone to the point of jumping off the ledge. Not sucidle just annoyed.

In fact for a while now since i was heavily medicated we thought that everything symptom was a side effect from a medication but obviously it is not.

Also Like i said due to all of these issues I have been having for so long. Whether they be Manic episodes for up to 6 hours long while heavily medicated/mental illsues, Or just physical problems. I have not been able to finish high school yet and going to be done for sure in may. So Just wondering if anyone else has had these issues. I dont know If i have agluten problem. I dont know if I have Hiv which I am still a virgin , but had other ways of experementing with women lmao............So i am clueless to what is happening. Are my kidneys shutting down? Do I have chrons disease? Do I have this pseudotumor cerebri my sister was falsely diagnosed with 4 years ago. I have no idea what so ever .....D: I am going to lay down Which might not wake up till 8:00 Pm or something stupid when i woke up 2 hours ago......Ill look forward to hearing back from ya.
