new to site I thought I’d tell my story. I first took psch meds at age 16 after becoming depressed for no reason. within an hour of being put on one med I felt something tear in my head. for the next 30 years I dealt with these sensations progressively getting worse but I tried to have a life anyway and used alcohol to numb the sensations and cope with the anxiety it caused. basically I became a highly functional alcoholic and had a good career, a wife and kids. four years ago the brain tearing apart sensations got much worse and I have pretty much been in hell ever since. I lost my job, wife threw me out, and I barely get to see my kids. I believe these brain tearing apart sensations are actually brain hemorrhages and that I am dying an agonizing death because of them. I am suffering a lot and lately have been thinking about hanging myself or throwing myself in front of a train. Both unlikely to happen but I do have the urge. This brain ripping apart disease or whatever you want to call it has destroyed my life.

That’s insane. I had never heard of it, so I googled brain damage caused by medication, and sure enough anti-psych meds are at the top of the list.
Not that this will fix anything, but have you looked into seeking legal damages? Maybe there are already class action suits that you can join. Someone needs to tell these pharmaceutical bastards they can’t kill us and get away with it.
thanks for commentimg. yeah very insane. I can’t believe how bad things have become. I used to just think of it as a condition I could live with but then it went completely of control.
rippy,
IT’S ALL IN YOUR HEAD! LOL
I have numerous lets call them afflictions, there with me from the moment I wake up till I go to bed, the cause sensations anxiety and I drinking right now to numb them, so we have a lot in common, my are cause from nerve damage had an accident along time ago, finally I gave up wondering why and feeling sorry for myself and said this is my normal, I won’t let it stop me from being or doing what ever I want, I’ve been successful at that even thought it’s a pain in the ass, but just excepting it as hey this is the way my body is and it’s my normal has helped me deal with it, I will never feel like other people and actually despite that I’m glad I’m me. I can deal with it piece of cake, as long as I accept it as normal. a lot of people have it worse, no arms no legs! 🙂 actually do the opposite face it head on and over come the bullshit.
