I saw the devil, is there any chinese here
This is creazy what is going on here. I am starting to take off. No triggers, just rising without any med changes. I am aware of the kindling effect. Once a young doctor told me you are wrongly medicated all your combo is antipsychotics. You should take a mood stabilizer. He meant simply an anticonvulsant like depakote, tegretol, etc... or the king lithium. I tried them for a very short period but i found them kind of poison.
This illness is a neurological one, can't understand the meaning of triggers!!. How come without any notice or change in med, I am going up. It all started 12 years ago when I did a car accident and hit my forehead into the glass shield, apparently I harmed my cortex or limbic...and I read in world war 2 many soldiers during the war had mood disorders.
Lately as Anonymos88 realized I began to think that I am BP1 and left 2 because i left depression when they used to wake me up and I was sort of dead in bed. Now it's finished I am worried about the other side (mania).
Usually in the last 3 years, 2 hrs before going to sleep, I take 1mg stelazin (typical AP) to fix me before my 25mg seroquel (my meals are: morning 25mg seroquel, lunch 25 seroquel, supper 1mg stelazin, dinner 25mg seroquel+1mg risperidone before going to sleep). Today, when I posted (does mania come suddendly), for the 1st time, my stelazin didn't work it lasted only for 2 hrs and I started feeling the devil inside me like I want to kill someone, I also saw the devil in the mirror. I will be taking instead 50mg seroquel before going to bed, hoping to land again by tomorrow. However I discovered something new. My mood wasn't low but it was the energy being higher was the cause of the mixed states i.e. that the stelazin reduced the gap between both mood and energy. i.e. as I was going up I realized my brain became more active i.e. more energy in my brain. So how come it's a psychic disease
I thought of the old chaps here, do you remember monkeyc, leftcoastchick, ....they don't post anymore. Many left and others arrived, meaning bad or perhaps good news. monkeyc used to tell me BP is no joke take care of your meds. I never met here though a chinese. Don't they have BP there?. Usually scientists in order to study a certain phenomenon, they travel to the country with little of it, e.g. Indians don't have athritis because of curcumin (against inflamation, in fact the new theory that most diseases including brain are due to inflamation), Japanese no cholesterol because their diet is all fish and omega3. Since no chinese here (they speak English well) so perhaps they know a technique to stop the brain when activated, acupuncture etc..I once read there is an institute there for psych brain energy. If there is someone here aware of this could he tell me, I am ready to travel there. I began to disbelieve in western medicine, pdocs and pharm companies in the west prefer what they do as they make a good living out of it, let's try a different technique.

HI,
I take 100mg Seroquel in morning , 450mg (slow release) Lithium in morning ,600mg Seroquel at night 450mg Lithium at night . These dose's stabilized me in 9-10 day's after being in a psychotic mixed state for 3 month's ( I'm lucky to be alive) .
Like Anonymouse88 said you might need a therapeutic dose of Seroquel for it to be affective also omega3 is good too .

I'm personally skeptical of a lot of the alternative medicine, given the quality of the science behind it. People talk about big pharma, but we're getting big alternative. Supplements are marketed for all sorts of things that they may or may not be good for, and they can be very expensive. Many "therapies" cost huge amounts of money, with results that might be entirely attributable to the placebo effect. If you can afford it and it's not likely to harm you, then do whatever, but some of these things are just as much of a money suck as prescription pharmaceuticals on your pocket.
Things that do have good evidence are omega-3s (in the right doses, not too much or too little), keeping a regular schedule, light therapy, and exercise. I've seen some interesting stuff on N-acetyl cysteine, although I'm not as familiar with it. It's a good idea to never start any sort of supplement while on prescription meds without talking to your doctor. Some things have rather potent interactions with drugs.
