I have been diagnosed and In denial for 20 years. My life is a complete mess. My husband is leaving me. And after seeing this I realize I HAVE to find help.
I’m cleaning the kitchen at 4:15 AM and I’ve been awake for four days and this is never happened before. It’s finally time I start taking my Seroquel and get over my fear of sleep because this isn’t working anymore. I hope anyone else struggling with us has more courage than me, and that we can all get better.
Im bipolar 1 for 15 yrs just had a manic episode in April - I felt it coming listening to that one song on repeat, believing I had all these business ideas for shark tank, meeting new people, sex, not going to work bc I’m too busy, spending money, house projects, but I crashed and ended up in ER physically sick- I did have all the meds I need to prepare for this but as soon as some hypomania symptoms came I stopped taking all my doses and stopped eating normal meals. Having bipolar You’ll never be 100% symptom free- you have to always watch your energy- does it match what’s going on- thank you for this video- I’m going to stop it next time!
I do the same thing with interpreting messages from things as if they are specifically for me. I go with it, because it's too coincidental to not be true. Then I'm fucked for several months trying to make sense of it all. Eventually I get back to "normal" (whatever that is), and then eventually I have another episode, lol. You sound just like me.
I am so grateful for you and proud for you. I am very impressed with your loving and educated support system and your ability to stop and hear, listen and react appropriately. I pray that you never have to see the inside of a hospital for your condition ever again. Thank you for being so open and honest. You have no idea how much you are helping my family. With warmest regards
God bless you brother for your lecture on this topic. You are showing people exactly how insight into mental illness works. Very valuable experience you have shared. Thank you.
I had to discontinue loxapine back in December (which sucks, but had to be done due to the fact I have preexisting heart problems), but I still have some for emergency use in case things go off the deep end. Thank you for your openness with your struggles with bipolar and mania, it's given me a platform to use in my own struggles with mental health. I'm glad I found your channel Garrett, and I'm very happy and proud that you were able to stop a manic episode and not end up in the hospital. Cheers friend (: 🙏
It's not easy to reconise your becoming unwell. I know with me normally feel I'm normal and relaxed which is why it's hard for me to catch to start with then I get more active and then become really unstable so well done for this!
I wake up at 4:00 am everyday. I have sleep apnea and am getting my CPAP on Tuesday. Excited to see if I feel a difference on my medications. Hopefully they work better with a decent night sleep, something I haven’t had for decades.
There's nothing wrong waking up cleaning the kitchen, especially if everyone was tired after dinner and left it alone. Definitely lays on my conscience, I cant take it.
Why was loxapine discontinued? Loxapine has been underutilized due to concerns of side effects and lack of in-depth research about its safety, tolerability, and efficacy.Jan 26, 2021
Listen to You, I think You are a very nice guy. I wouldn't think You are bipolar or anything like that. Personally, I don't think, there is such a thing like "normal". But I would suggest, just to avoid cannabis, because in sensitive people it can bring about this kind of psychic disorders. Maybe, from time to time a glass of vine in the evening would be better to relax. But this is just my opinion. Another question. I've got Kenacort (cortisone/triamcinolon) injections 40 mg two and a half years ago, one in each shoulder. There have been maybe two weeks between the injections. The effect was a miracle to me, because I had tremendous pain. I actually didn't want to take cortisone, and refused to take it for about 4 months. Doctor told me, I will loose my work, so finally I agreed. Now, I have a lot of side effects, like high blood pressure, which I never had before I always had low blood pressure, eye disturbences, strong pain in my legs, white pigmentation on the skin, pain in the chest and I could go on. Do You have any idea, if this side effects are irreversible or if there is any chance to come back to normal life? Is that stuff still in the body doing the harm? I did some research, but didn't find anything except in Hindi. My treatment was done in Switzerland. It's also difficult, to get information about this stuff from the doctors. Thank You
So because you woke up early a couple of days, and then woke up at 3. I assume not tired. This caused you to start to have a manic episode? Do you think sometimes it's possible that it is better for us to go to the hospital instead of taking a higher dosage of meds?

Thank you for your bravery and helping others
Fantastic. It's nice 2 know there's hope. Thank you 4 sharing this.
Bringing cannabis into my life is what helped my mania. But when I was an alcoholic it was terrible. 5 years away from the bottle

Thanks, Denise!
Way to go! I am so glad you caught it early.
Your story is amazing and thank you for sharing it. May you and your family be blessed and stay strong and supporting each other

Thank you for sharing this Garrett. So happy you got better without going to hospital and with the help of your family.
Mania is only fun for a short while for me. Then i too get to seeing hearing things / having werid thoughts.
I had to discontinue loxapine back in December (which sucks, but had to be done due to the fact I have preexisting heart problems), but I still have some for emergency use in case things go off the deep end.

Lucky you. Its sad that people don't see they have a problem and then abuse their families.
This helped me so much thank you look forward to watching more of your content 🙏🏽💕

Thank You. ❤
How can I come down with no meds bro 😭 my doctor won’t prescribe me meds

Thanks bro
Hi, was diagnosed with bipolar, but I have never been hospitalized. What happens that makes a hospital visit necessary,
Thank you for sharing
I've been hospitalized due to symptoms of psychosis such as delusions but it could also be due to depression if I were to become a danger to myself.
@@DrugTalk ok. Thank you
I routinely wake up before alarms because I hate waking up to alarms...says now unemployed me.
Why was loxapine discontinued?

Are you on antidepressants? Please answer your answer. It would be much appreciated, thanks

This comment is pretty rude… even if it is from three whole years ago.
Zoplicone has strange side effects for many folk.
So because you woke up early a couple of days, and then woke up at 3. I assume not tired. This caused you to start to have a manic episode? Do you think sometimes it's possible that it is better for us to go to the hospital instead of taking a higher dosage of meds?
I feel like there’s a higher risk to one’s body when they take higher and higher doses of medicine. Especially in the long term future
Most hospitals pump the patients with meds higher than any are allowed to be prescribed.
This is happening to my partner atm but sadly he thinks he's enlightened.
Sorry to hear that
