Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 About 12 years ago I had a very bad brakedown from remembering the abuse I suffered as a child. No one told me to remember and I had never heard of represed memories before I was at work when it came to me and I checked on every memory before I came out with it and I was correct on everything. soon after I was dx with PTSD I was DX with BI-Polar 1. I was put on lithium and gained over 100 lbs, then depakote and at one time over 12 meds at the same time. I was told the I would never fuction with out meds. I have lost 12 years of my life due to the doctors lies. about 3 years ago I started taking large doses of vit c and then normal dose of b complex extra b6 and large doses of fish oil. I slowly taped off all but 4 meds one is for my kidneys and is just altace, but the other three were topamax, welbutron, and risperdal. well my insurance decided not to cover topamax anymore so I had to taper off it. I was started on lamictal and had a very sever reaction to it. I decided not to tell my doctor that I stoped the lamictal and I began to feel better than I had in 12 years. so I than tapered myself off of welburtron and I felt even better. I have now cut my risperdal in half and will continue to taper off of it. the less I take to better I feel and Im not talking about a manic feel I feel just like I did before I had my breakdown. I think once I get off of risperdal I will learn something that has stolen 12 years from my life. 12 years ago I had a serious breakdown because of my childhood and nothing more no bi-polar I think all the up and downs I felt were drug induced not me. I have not told my doctor Im doing this because he would freak I have enrolled into school to become A+ And NeT+ and INet+ cert I will graduate next summer than get a job for the first time in 12 years. I do not and do not think I need to be on disability anymore. I have learned something from this psy doctors lie to u to get a paitent. I have been lied to for the last 12 years and it discusses me to the max. no one had the right to take those 12 years from me and no one can give them back. but I can began to make the best fo my life from here on. From now on if anyone ask me I will tell them to be sure that they were dx correctly and not given a blanket dx. Im not depressed over losing 12 years just mad. but I will turn that into positive energy and make something out of the rest of my life. Drugs are bad for the most part and doctors lie for the main part. Ive said my piece I will be quiet now. Poneyboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Also give him a nice calm space. Take walks and give him only things that he can actually and truly complete. This will also calm down the problem quite a bit. Last, whatever you give him, it's his. Do not give him the room in the house. That's your house, he lives ther. But if you give him a bike and he starts roughing it up, so what, simply don't buy him another, but let him OWN the bike as you would if it were yours. I think we all hate being told what to do with gifts given to us. So lets not do it to others. This will give your child/kid a greater ability to be comfortable with his things and YOURS.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 What a wonderful attitude you have. I think you should write a book. You can really give people hope. Just reading your email has had a positive effect on me. I believe you can get those 12 years back, especially with you sharing your experiences with others. You may live to be 120. Way to go Ponyboy. I really hope you write a book. I think it would help so many people. I wanted to ask y'all your opinion on this. I have a friend of mine whose son is schizophrenic. He is on meds.
