As a nurse at a state psychiatric hospital, I see people with symptoms like these when they aren't taking the right medications. Thanks to the newer generation of antipsychotics, we are seeing people recover from episodes like you're having, with much fewer side effects. It is typical to think of them as poison pills, that doctors and nurses are trying to poison you, when you're having a psychotic episode. Hopefully you will take the medicine your doctor prescribed so you can get better. You're not alone. Good luck.

I was experiencing the same thing, exactly ten years ago, to this date. I've thought that everybody was leaving
Canada, due to my un-Canadian behaviour at work. I was also thinking that my parents' front yard was going to turn into a forest. I was thinking that my mum was going to drive off on me, or beat me with the belt, though I've never gotten a beating in my life. I was also thinking that the UK would be submerged under water, by the end of 1998. That was when there was a reason for me to go to London. I wanted to get a sex change and change my name to Austin Powers. I went to get help, and I'm doing 100% better, now.

The thoughts and depression are getting worse. Now the lovely government is telling me how they will kill me and it isn't a pretty picture. It isn't with guns but there is the chips in my body that control me. They said that they also will have something that will eat away my insides until I die and they will do it slowly so it will be more painful. They tell me I am responsible for everything that goes on in the world including the economy and people dying. The government told me that they will continue to control me until they are bored of that and then they will release whatever it is to kill me from within. The aliens are threatening to invade and capture me for some reason. My concentration skills are almost gone. I really want to cut the chips out of my body so I don't have them controlling me anymore or trying to kill me.

I am suicidal now. I hate myself. I am nothing but a burden on my family. Things will only get worse for us. Never better. I think we will lose everything we own and live on the street. Thats where most artists end up anyways.

That is not true ,you are a wonderful person and you shouldest listen to the voices in your head . Try and block them out with what little concentration you have left. They are a manifestation of you guilt and you shouldn't be guilty about anything.

YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON!! ! Don't kill your self. We like you everyone on this forum likes you, and everyone would be sad if you tried to kill yourself.

I went into the hospital last night and they didn't take me. In fact the person who interviewed me didn't take me seriously.

I'm still very depressed and I went to my psychiatrist and he didn't care that I am in immediate danger. He cared more about me drinking pop than me being a danger to myself. I don't know how much longer I can go on. I want to find a new psychiatrist that cares about me and my feelings. Autism is ruining my life and because everything I have is caused from the autism, no medicine will work on me. I have absolutely NO future of any kind and the statistics prove it. 30-50% of the homeless have mental illness. 65% of schizophrenics never marry. Most have no jobs or if they do it is very low paying like working at a fast food place or a grocery store. And all the docs think I have so many things so the odds are stacked against me. This is real proof that I have no future and am worthless and hopeless. There are times where I am perfectly fine or even better than fine and I drink pop. It makes no difference. I ain't eating or drinking much anyways because I have no appetite. I have a new psychologist and she at least cares. Thats good news. The next time I see her is Thursday.

Don't let him get you down . You are better then that! Keep trying to better your self It may be possible to over come your schizophrenia to the point you don't need medication but it will take hard work and determination.

Ask your self this.
Do you want to be off your medication? Do you want to be healthy? Do you want better relationships with people?
You can do ANYTHING YOU WANT TO YOU JUST HAVE TO WANT IT ENOUGH!!

I wanted to be able to be know how to behave in social situations , I can now!

I wanted to be off my medication, I am now!

I wanted To over come my bi-polar ,depression, O.C.D, A.D.H.D And A.S.
And I did so well at that goal My doctor took me off ALL of my medication!

You can do anything if you believe in your self, I know it is true I'VE DONE IT!

YOU WILL TOO!

I wanted the man of my dreams I found him and we have been dating for two years , it will be 3 in October.

Just hold on these bumps in life are a test, sometimes they are there to teach you something , sometimes they are there to help you grow as a person. But they do happen for a reason .

You have a destiny a path laid out in front of you , perhaps you don't know where it is going , perhaps you don't know what the future brings. But there is a reason for that too. We all have a destiny some things are set some things are not, but you can make choices in life you have one right now. You can chose to kill your self or you can chose to live, wouldn't it be more fun to live and see what GREAT things your destiny has in store for you?

You never know next week or next year you might find the love of your life!
But you wont find them if you kill yourself.

Keep holding on !life is a big roller coaster sometimes it is fun, sometimes it is scary but in the end you will look back and say wow that ride was fun , You wont regret it . After all you should enjoy this ride as long as it lasts! 8)
