netsavy006 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Ok. I don't know if I was a part of this forum then, but I was on Clozaril once before. Right now I'm on 100mg and that's an ok dose. But I know I can't go any higher than 100mg/d. In the past when I was on 125 or 150/qHS, I had a problem where I couldn't get up in time either during the night or first thing in the morning to get to the bathroom to urinate. So I'd end up having urinated myself by morning. I can't take Clozaril in the morning either because it makes me so sedated that I can't get up out of the chair or move around. I'm so sedated, it's worse than if I were ever drunk. So if the Clozaril can't be increased because in the past urinary problems and the sedation if split, what can we use as an antipsychotic? 100mg is the max I can take but I don't think it's sufficient enough. Thanks in advance, Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpladybug Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 andy, please give it a rest!!! You can talk this over with your new Pdoc in one week. I think this is anxiety driven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SashaSue Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Andy, seriously, don't you have anything else to think about? Hobbies? Friends? Anything at all? This is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneMarie Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Andy, you posted in the test board that you were going to take a break for a few days. I think you had a good idea. Maybe now would be a smart time to take a break for the week. We'll still be here when you come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koali777 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Not sure why you guys always respond that way to him. The last few days that's all it's been. I know I personally wouldn't put up with it. So the guy has some concerns, give him a break, if he's really that obsessive about this stuff then you all should understand what it's like to ruminate on stuff.

koali777 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I guess I was just hoping this was a place where I could be a bit neurotic and be accepted. For example, when I'm a bit obsessive, my mom will criticize me. This is a place where we understand each other. Meh it doesn't matter, I don't even know this guy so I wasn't necessarily standing up for him, just more confused about why people treat him that way.

jarn Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I suspect, though it could be wrong, that people get upset that this is an ongoing issue that he doesn't seem to have tried to address; he sometimes talks about learning coping mechanisms but from what I've seen there isn't any follow-through on that. But I can't really speak for people, it's what I find concerning - this is, from what I've noticed lately, a near-constant issue that there don't seem to be any attempts to fix.

You've been a member for awhile, do you feel accepted? I hope so. I do. I don't always get the responses I expect, but it makes me think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koali777 Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Actually, guys, what you're saying mkes sense now. Maybe I was being a bit overly sensitive, I have been lately. I thought you were just abusing him but it sounds like you care and want him to stop going around in circles. I apologize. Well actually, there are certain people who actually do seem a little mean to him, but overall I see what you mean. And I do feel accepted...I think. Sometimes I feel that people may think I'm sort of dumb, but that's probably just my paranoia. People generally are nice and understanding here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
