Scared

I am feeling really bad, it is 5pm and I havent even been up an hour because I have been laying in bed seeing things and thinking all these things were happening that werent. Thats the best way I can describe it. What freaks me out is how I could just be laying there, and I lost so much time, when I finally "came round" it was gone 4pm. I've experienced this before but until now the zyprexa stopped it. I'm scared by this. And I dont have anyone to ring as my mental health team are closed. Dont know what to do.

I would go to the emergency room. I know it is the last thing we want to do but it sounds like that is your only option.

Remember to trust in doctors and the ones that love you. Telephone someone to help you clarify what's real and what's not. Jewel is right you should go and get the right medicine to help you.

I'm sorry. It's really horrible when you don't know what's real and what's not. Not being able to trust your own rendition of reality is hard.

When I have the trouble, I pray. Idk if you believe in anything, but it always helps me, because I know there is ultimitly someone up there who can take care of me, and help me to be stronger.

It's ok to just lay there. Don't be scared, it's normal with this illness. It's a natural part of our lives. Stop feeling guilty.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
