Hello ATSer's.
I have recently had what some may call a mental breakdown. It's reason I haven't been hanging around ATS over the past few weeks.
Anyhow, I have been hearing voices, I have been having major panic attack. My personality seems to change from moment to moment, although I don't relise at the time.
My doctor believes I have bi-polar but she thinks my paranoia stems from my time at ATS.
I was just wondering your thoughts on this.edit on 31-3-2012 by ALOSTSOUL because: (no reason given)

More importantly...what do you think about what your GP said. I'm not a trained professional to judge your state of mind.
We all need a mental health break sometimes. There's nothing wrong with that.

Honestly, I believe ATS knock down many walls for me. I feel as if doc is rebuilding them, which I don't like. I feel as she is a doctor I should listen but I do not want to. Im confused as to whether she is with or against me. But I have been told that that confusion mean I still hold so me sense of stability.

I don't think ATS can actually cause a mental breakdown, but I agree with your GP that this may not be the best environment for someone who is wrestling with serious personal issues. Speedy healing!

i think it's a bunch of hogwash bro. what caused your breakdown? (and you don't need to share...just think0
do you have other things going on in your life? i seriously doubt ATS alone could break down anyone. yeah...there's a lotta info on here that could scare anyone...but there's a lottta info on here that can help anyone, too...
so if you truly think ATS has something to do with it...take break but it sounds to me like you think the doc is full of crap, too...your heart knows what you need.
i'm certified bi-polar...took myself off the meds years ago. best thing i ever did for myself! meds might be nice to
help you regain a grip but don't stay on them forever...chances are you don't need them but for a few months.
like fissionsurplus said...i get a lot more irate about people on here than the actual news/info...in which case,
yeah...take a vacation from the office!
deep down you know if ATS is the problem or not. i mean...you brought your concern here...i'd say you don't really trust your docs advice on this one do ya mate?
(ps...i used to hear voices, too...for a period of about 3 years...whispers, laughs, my name, occasional taunts...there's a world much bigger than ours right before our eyes that we cannot see...but we know it's there...)edit on 3/31/12 by ICEKOHLD because: (no reason given)
I have had nothing recent that may have sent me this way. I went to the doctor after I had a panic attack about people talking about me at work. She diagnosed me with depression although I told her I wasn't depressed. I keep my wits about me and relised that what I thought were people talking about were actually in my head.
I waited a little to see if I could make them go away. They didn't so I went back to my GP. Told her the score and after a lengthy discussion she diagnosed me with paranoid based bi-polar.
