News of Psychotic Disorders

Okay so I just found this forum and it is so much my life with my DD husband I need some advice from you all. I have a custody hearing for my child on June 16th. My DD has done all the accusations, need "proof", I am the one who is crazy, called my boss, family, friends, etc....and now I had to leave my house with our child. Our child has a terminal disease, her ...

I have been struggling with delusional disorder for about eight years now. It wasn’t until last year that I became fully aware that I suffered from a disease rather than just bad luck and heightened intuition. Prior to visiting the psychiatrist I was convinced I was right, I was being cheated on, but I had to know everything before I could act upon my knowledge (not suspicions, I felt they were real, all of my ...

I have a psychology report to give and I need a case study of someone who has been diagnosed with delusional disorder. If anyone would be willing to give a brief summary of what happened with them, how it's effected their lives, how they got help and if it was effective, i would GREATLY appreciate it, because everything i find on the internet only tells what deulsion someone suffered from and then it stops there. ...

real quick backround, about 2 months and 2 weeks maybe ago i found a website with symptoms for schizophrenia...they matched me and i got real upset so my parents took me to a psychiatrist who just threw risperdol at me, which gave me headaches every day for 3 weeks, then she put me on zyprexa which made me so sleepy i could barely stay awake at school (quit 2 days later) and so i was ...

I personally haven't had a delusioni (that I know about) for 2 years but I have hallucinations a couple times a week (it varies for some weeks) And my hallucinations are mainly auditory ...

I just wanna a know how many schizophrenic do has a belief and how many don't. Thanks

this has been an ongoing symptom for me: I get my dreams confused with my waking moments. It happens at least a few times a day. I'll think something actually happened, but then after asking someone about it or thinking about it for a while, i realize it was just in a dream that i had the night before. It's a real weird feeling.
Also, even when i'm awake, everything always just feels like a ...

The doctor gave me Seroquel today...Have any of you taken it? Does it stop hallucinations? Any bad side effects?

Hi,

I hear voices, see things, have delusions, but one of my biggest symptoms are the "altered sense of self" I've talked to schizophrenics on other forums, but i havn't really met anyone yet who has these symptoms as much as i do. Anyone else have a lot of these?
