The Right Honourable Jimmy Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) So since my doctor took me off my medication (800mg of Seroquel + Depokote) cold-turkey in February(which I've reported him for malpractice with the NHS but its taking ages). I've had severe insomnia, the most sleep that I was able to get since that period, was 4 hours every night after a depressed episode during spring time but it didn't last. Recently I went back to almost none and out of surprise my pdoc let me have some ambien for a week which usually lets me have 3-5 hours of sleep. My sleep usually gets that bad.. that last month I left the house and my eyes were playing tricks on me and I thought people were zombies, and when I went closer they would turn to humans again, I would always ask for help and get none and I'm tired of begging that I just shut up now.Plus there is no such thing as morning or night to me anymore.My other problem is when I wake up whenever I get a bit of sleep, I wake up and I go on rage mode. I am so irritable but only when I wake up, I've punched a hole through my door( I had to buy a new one). I smashed my mirror, I punch things, I hit things with my head. I only have a week's prescription of ambien, and then my doctor said I'm on my own, he wants to give me an anti-depressant for sleep but I told him I can't take it because he took me off Depokote, then he says I don't have bipolar. He is wrong because he tried to diagnose me with BPD and I went to a specialist which he advised me to go and she is 100% absolutely sure I do not have BPD or any personality disorder for that matter. He still refuses to give me my medication because he thinks I do not suffer from a mental disorder when I had many manic episodes with psychosis in the past including one in February which I got run over twice by traffic because I thought I was immortal. My advocate is taking absolute ages with the second opinion doctor and I'm just left in middle of this shit. I've been so desperate for my medication that I went to ask drug dealers asking for Seroquel ...that bad.Any suggestions for now?

melissaw72 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I'm sorry you are going through this.I would call your advocate like every day until you can get in to see another DR. I'd bother the crap out him/her until s/he did something more than they are doing now.Also, he says you don't have a MI ... then why would you be there if there was nothing wrong? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melissaw72 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 You're welcome ... I hope everything works out for you. It sounds so frustrating (well, more than that) to be going through what you are going through now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
