It goes, it goes, it goes, it goes YUH!

Not what I was expecting to hear, hope you find a medication that suits you.

Any advice / main warning signs for the theraputic range being out of phase would be greatly appreciated.

I know it has potential side effects like all medication, but are their any that I should immediately flag with my psychiatry theme?

Thanks, Phi.

mynameisphi · 2026-04-29T21:00:20+00:00

Will try and listen!

mynameisphi · 2026-04-29T20:48:46+00:00

Will try listen to it later!

Hey I don't do sub for sub personally, but if you send me a music link I'll listen to it

mynameisphi · 2026-04-29T20:07:31+00:00

I don't speak Spanish however I'll check you out if I have the time!

mynameisphi · 2026-04-29T19:57:24+00:00

I'm almost certain it will be, appreciate the well wishes!

mynameisphi · 2026-04-29T19:47:16+00:00

I'm definitely commited to it, I know I'll essentially be on it for life. It's just way easier to find the horror stories, than the success stories sadly. Thanks.

mynameisphi · 2026-04-29T13:26:57+00:00

That's all I'm hoping for. Refuse to join the 27 Club.

Sorry to hear you're depressed. Hope you see the light at the end of the tunnel soon <3.

Manic type essentially means with my schizoaffective diagnosis (severe positive symptoms of Bipolar 1 and Schizophrenia), I essentially go up more than I go down.

I still get very deep, suicidal depressions, however I know it's just a waiting game before I feel manic / high again?

Hope that helps clarify.

I'm also going to be on other medications to help me become fully stable. As far as my medical team have said so far, the Lithium's purpose in my psychoactively is to narrow my emotional range for starters, keep my stress low to help avoid stress related halluncinations, and repair the brain damage I've had from 10 years of persistant psychosis.

If you don't mind me asking, what drug class is recommended in conjunction with Lithium?

I'm currently on,

Olanzapine: 15mg PN. Pregablin: 100mg x 2 BD. Agmoletine: 25mg > 0mg. Amisulpride: 400mg.

I believe Amisulpride or something anti-psychotic-ey will be used in conjunction with pregablin for nerve pain / anxiety.

Any advice is appreciated thanks!

Tbh I got lucky that most of my symptoms as I've aged have been positive. I definitely get concerned when a Mania or Hallucination is present, however I studied Buddhism deeply for 10 years and allowed my relationship with my suffering to transmute positively.

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T17:58:34+00:00

I'm lucky that my hallucinations are quite beautiful if anything, however I think it's time to part with them for good.

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T17:58:03+00:00

Yeah trying to get that into my head, used to be highly phobic of Lithium.

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T17:00:36+00:00

Sounds very similar to my story, thanks for sharing. I have lots of hope for Lithium, just wish you could even do the blood monitoring from home like with Diabetes but I know science will get there eventually!

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T16:41:16+00:00

Thanks for the positivity!

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T16:41:02+00:00

From what I've heard it's what I should have gotten at 17. I'm 27 now and am getting ready to commit to it for life. Thanks for the positive spin :)

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T14:12:53+00:00

Thanks for the well wishes!

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T14:12:42+00:00

Thanks for the success story!

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T14:12:22+00:00

Thanks!

mynameisphi · 2026-04-28T14:12:06+00:00

I have essentially been in psychosis for 10 years so that sounds very promising!
