She has had severe side effects and she constantly shakes, is now extremely obese with a long list of other problems. I do not know the name of the medication as of yet, but I am hoping that I will be able to get in tough with the doctor soon. As of her most recent episode of side effects, she has not been able to speak clearly. She sounds gravely ill, as though she has experienced a stroke.

She has been back to see another doctor, who has told her that she has high BP and a nervous condition... he has given her numerous medications to supposedly have thwart the effects of the other meds. Please let me know if there is long term life threatening side effects with use of these meds and if so how can we ween her off them?

Thanks]]>

Otherwise, I am a fairly high functioner; happily married, 2 good kids, maintain physical health (somewhat) nice functional home, had a good job as of recently.

My past wasn't so "functional" though as I had a psychological break where I experienced a temporary state of Schizophrenia in my early 20s and was hospitalized 30 days 2x. It has been almost 30 years since then and have not been hospitalized since and have not gone on any anti psychotic meds. I have two late sister's who were diagnosed with bipolar/schizophrenia one of them was a non fraternal twin. Not 100% certain on diagnosis...it was one or the other or both.

My question is can one have a "mild" case of Schizophrenia? I may be neurotic but never diagnosed with schizophrenia only GAD Do not have radical mood swings for bipolar. Looking for closure and help. .]]> I can no longer continue to be in denial as I have had some clear cut problems in my life specifically in maintaining/forming relationships.
