I live in a state where if you are identified as mentally ill you become a ward of the state and you are FORCED to 'get help' and see a psychiatrist for the REST OF YOUR LIFE. I had become psychotic due to a manic reaction to a very strong, little prescribed MAOI which has fallen in disfavor among psychiatrists. This drug literaLLY BLEW MY MIND BY BOOSTING three different neurotransmitter chemicals, and I became extremely euphoric. This took place over many years, and eventually I had a reaction similiar to amphetamine psychosis. I was then labeled a 'schizophrenic' and forced to take neuoroleptics, that made me impotent, and made me feel dead inside. I was forced to take these meds over and over and over and I always went of them. This wreaked havoc with my brain chemistry. Since I loved the euphoria the maoi gave me, I took more than I should. I have no one to blamne but myself for that part of whatever happened to my brain. The neuroleptic medications were forced on me however, and I think that I had a rebound psychosis when I went off them, and this happened over and over for years. Last year I developed a severe sleeping disorder while I was being kept prisoner in a hospital.
When the sleep disorder began, I was stable and being force fed medicine under threat of forcible injections. My sleep disorder is coincidental. It has nothing to do with being 'off' medication. I know that I am not now slipping into another psychosis. I have no symptoms whatsoever. The problem I need help with, is that I tried telling my psychiatrist that I was only getting 2 to 3 hours of very light non REM sleep per week and he does not beleive me. He is telling me that I am sleeping and that I am delusional. He is telling me I have sleep apnia. I know this is not the case because i am on the internet all night long and most of the day. If I was falling alsleep in front of the monitor I would know it, and I am most certainly NOT. I am on SSI, and medicare will not cover sleep disorders. I have tried to contact physicians and I am being ignored because I can>t pay. I understand that this is life in the big city but I think i might get some help if medicare knew how serious my condition is. How can I prove that I am only getting two to three hours of sleep? Who do I write to for help in this regard? Has anyone heard of this kind of severe sleep deprivation? I saw a program on th
e E channel once about celebrity mental disorders, and a celebrity whose name escapes me was said to only get 2 hours of sleep a week before he finally got treatment. Is their a website that documents this kind of severe lack of sleep as even existing? If there is please tell me so I can prove it to my caregivers. |
