      Default When I'm not disorganized, psychotic and paranoid ...

      Schizoid is pretty much my natural state. Emotional I am repressed so even therapy is pretty useless but that is all I get now. CBT is useless because well I'm pretty rational and I'm not emotionally attached to any idea. My CBT counselor doesn't know what to do with me. RBT not much different but at least the doctor realizes I don't need fixing. I did like DBT because of the Buddhist twist to it ... that counselor actually understood people and the limits of his technique. Had one therapist I still wondering what form of therapy she was using? I nicknamed it the "Nod and Yawn" technique. Beats the Hell out of medication.

      Well I do think therapies beat the hell out of medication to - I also like d.b.t. although my course is coming to an end pretty soon.
      I'm also on mediaction too though, maybe its time to jack the stuff in???!!

      'But I don’t want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
      'Oh, you can’t help that,' said the Cat. 'We’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad.'
      'How do you know I’m mad?' said Alice.
      'You must be,” said the Cat. 'or you wouldn’t have come here.'

      Basically my condition is brain inflammation and antipsychotics are useless for that. Not like I've not tried them. However, the result is usually serotonin syndrome or worse neuroleptic malignant syndrome. They don't even tranquilize me, they make me worse-- violent.

      I am medicated but it's with antihistamines. Without the antihistamines, I'm basically a disorganized schizophrenic with psychopathic tendencies. Not exactly a good candidate for an assisted living facility.

      Antihistamines, I understand they work - I read it somewhere else - can;t remember where now. Glad that they keep you safe.

      So are my doctors. I think they should have gotten hazard pay for having to deal with me for the last three years.

      I would suggest therapy with an attachment based therapist.
