Choosing_the_blue_pills Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Hi, I'm rather new here, this is the first time I'm starting a new thread and felt this was the right place to do it. You can call me CTBP or whatever, realized my username is a bit long. When I registered I was taking Geodon/Zeldox 40 mg blue pills, now I'm on Seroquel. I've had untreated and undiagnosed problems of depression and paranoia for a long time. Got treated after hospitalization due to psychosis. Lost some jobs in the process. I'm also rejecting values I've had in the past, and the rejection and having those values might have caused me and might cause me problems. Not sure. Can't talk about it here really because this is a place for sick people, not people that have been sick in that way. Talking about it with my therapist though. Anyway, paranoia and delusions selfhealed after a couple of years. Guess it feels good to say it even if I don't want to talk about it here. For more info on who I am, see the thread "What's your list?". What else. Probably going to check out more info on mindfulness since I found that intresting. Got some early developed tardive dyskinesia which I hope will go away soon, else I will have to switch meds again. Have been on many atypicals, and they have all worked, but have had TD along with them. I think I've tried Clozapine, Olanzapine, Sertindole, Ziprasidone and now Quetiapin (Seroquel). I also have some Temazepam (benzo) that I almost never use for fear of becoming addicted. Have not started with any type of therapy yet, have just stated my problems so far. I'm a little curious and I guess anxious how therapy is going to turn out to be. So again, hello everyone and thanks for making this such a good forum. I'm going to stick around a long time.

Littlewing Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 It IS a great place, isn't it CTBP. I'm glad to hear you're getting therapy and it seems to be working for you. That's always good news. You should definitely stick around. I had a break where I just felt I couldn't post for a while cos there was too much going on, but it's great to be back, and everyone really is so lovely.

olga Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Now you see why I chose "olga" when I joined! I'm lazy and didn't want to bother with a long name. Anyway, we're glad you're here and I hope we can be of some help to you. Feel free to PM a mod if you don't understand something. olga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choosing_the_blue_pills Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 Thanks for all replies, had some irrational fear no one would reply. What more to say. Used escitalopram (cipralex) for some time. I'm quite lonely, no friends, but a girlfriend. Like reading books and going to museums/excibitions. Some aspects of the new internet have passed me by, like rss feeds, shared bookmarks and popular networking sites. I'm using the phone to connect to here quiet often, but can only post comments in the blogs then (using Opera mini). Having the phone with me always means I never get bored, I just logg in to CB. Not that I think I would get bored anyway, I would just go introspective, but it's more fun to also have the option of reading what others have to say.
