First post for a few months. Hello to everyone. I started taking Abilify in November and I’m at 4mg pd now which I know is not a significant dose. Recently I’ve been feeling very angry and agitated. After some research I discovered akathisia. I was more worried about tardive dyskenisia (sp?)...

I’m tired of it. I like it too much. But it works, which sucks. It makes me mellow and agreeable and love to laugh again. But I’m smoking everyday. I’m completely dependant on it. Total admission. I’m going the turk. Please wish me luck. Ya I know it’s just weed but for me it’s a problem.

I'm in a bad place today and part of me knows that I should be in the hospital for my own safety. I've never done that before. I'm terrified it will open up the final door that makes me officially "crazy". The idea of being away from my place, my safe spot, my things, makes me want to puke. I...

My T is perfectly accurate when he tells me that my radar is set to a certain type of woman. Damaged. Unattainable. Sexualized. Filled with neuroses and pathologies. I never disagree with him but I always wonder, what the hell else am I going to be attracted to? I was this way long before...

No. This isn't a pleasant topic but we ignore the negative at our own peril. What are some things that PTSD confirmed about your less-pleasant opinions of people and life; or, conversely, did PTSD show you new ugly truths in the behaviour of others, or just how damn unfair the universe can be...

Been dealing with GERD for years. Get biannual scopes for Barrett's. Spent years on PPIs but now can't afford them. Back to Zantac. Refuse to give up coffee or Coke Zero. f*ck it. I have few pleasures. I'm not giving up two of them. I carry almost all my stress in my stomach. Any one else...

Hello everyone. I'm a 44yo male in Canada. I recently ended a ten-year career investigating and searching for missing and exploited children. What I witnessed on the job gave me PTSD. My career is now over. I've had depression since I was 14yo and anxiety since my early 30s. However before...
