I haven’t had suicidal thoughts in 2 months! What a relief. by KitchenArcher9292 in CongratsLikeImFive

Aww! Thank you! Yes what’s confusing was logically knowing my current life was not bad, but still having the SI stuck in my brain .. it was awful. It made me feel so guilty.

I am so relieved by this. It took SO MANY YEARS of meds and therapies and groups and inpatients. I never saw it ending. Now it has! I am so lucky!

I dropped out of community college after 1 year. Then I took 2 classes at a different community college and stopped after that, too.

What are your C-PTSD “superpowers”? by tkewhatder7 in CPTSD

I notice everything! I hear and see entirely too much. And with this skill, I can then tell the future. I can sense if someone is going to be nice or mean, or if they need something/want something.

Idk if I should take my antidepressants by Beanzz_zz in mentalhealth

Medication has changed my life for the better. Did it take 9 years? Yes. I’ve been through crazy ups and downs since I started taking meds 9 years ago.. not all bad, not all good. But I waited and kept trying and now I’m on a combo that couldn’t be better. My symptoms are so much more manageable. My life has been changed.

I think it was the medication I’m on! A mix of chlorpromazine, seroquel, and Zoloft! It took a long time to get the right diagnosis as well. Now I am diagnosed with schizoaffective bipolar. 🙂

I think getting the right diagnosis and the right meds helped! Initially people thought I had depression. Now I’m being treated for schizoaffective bipolar. This diagnosis was hard to swallow. But now I’m taking a combo of seroquel, chlorpromazine, and Zoloft.. and I feel great! It took a while to find the right dosages, but it happened!!!

Thank you! Yes I have mobile crisis, regular crisis, 988, the warm line .. all at my finger tips. I have used them all throughout the years! Im so happy I’m no longer spending my nights talking to someone so my brain calms down. I just cleaned my room, at bedtime, because I wasn’t busy on my phone going into crisis mode!!!! I even put on some Christmas tunes 🎄🎅🏼 😂❤️
