The paranoia was mainly a side effect of what I'd taken. I went way overboard with the pills, and mixed different types that shouldn't really be mixed. I still think a lot of the things I mentioned, even without having taken pills, but I'm able to rationalise it a bit more.
And losing time is only ever something that happens when I overdose. I hate classifying what I did as overdosing, as I tend to think of overdosing as something I do to hurt myself, whereas this wasn't really an attempt at hurting myself (at least it didn't start that way, but I can't remember what I was thinking when it came to taking more pills and I was taking more every few hours at one point), but taking too much of anything is technically an overdose, regardless of the intention.
I see my therapist tomorrow, and will tell her all of this. Although she does tend to dismiss what I say and tell me I'm coping fine, regardless of what's been happening.
My mother had a GP appointment last week. She has the same GP that I do. My mother knows nothing about what's going on, but apparently I came up in conversation and my GP said something about sending me an appointment because everyone's concerned about me refusing to see a psychiatrist. If my GP sends me an appointment, I'll go to see her, but I can't bring myself to ask for an appointment.
I don't feel like anything in particular has triggered this. It's not even that unusual for me. The only difference is that I'm not seeing a psychiatrist. I still really miss my old psychiatrist, which is stupid, because she's been gone ages now, and I shouldn't be this attached.
