Yeah about 3 months ago I was diagnosed by my phyciatrist with the neurological disease of prodrome schizophrenia (prodrome = pre). I had phycotic episodes and I would be randomly angry about everything. I would start feeling as if I was being watched. And when my phyciatrist diagnosed me I looked up everything I could about the disease and couldnt help but have my blood run cold in figureing out what really happens when you do have full blown schizophrenia. So now I take seroquel, I was previously on resperidal but I was having anxiety attacks up the ass. My physciatrist linked high anxiety to my phycotic phase and my constant paranoia to everything.
The whole reason I did this post is because I wanted to know if there is anyone on NG with a neurological disease. And I want to let you know your not alone. I am curious however what medication you are taking and if it works for you? I really like seroquel it blocks dopamine receptors and at the same time creates them =D. That is why I perfer taking it. I am currently taking 200 mg but I am soon to take 300 mg to be sure that I never get the damn disease.
I know acouple of people who are bi polar but i have meet a small amount of schizophrenia people and some of them dont take medication... I STRONGLY SUGGEST IF YOU HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH A NEUROLOGICAL DISEASE TAKE MEDICATION IT REALLY DOES HELP! I care about the ng users who have to suffer through this and any disease for that matter! I want to be a biochemist one day and help everyone out. Hopefully my obsession with math and science will get me there.
