this is the first time I have posted here. I just joined a few minutes ago. I don t know if I have Bipolar disorder, I had a brief psychotic episode 3 years ago. I had never had any symptoms before. I was 48. I had been on extremely high doses of opioids for rheumatoid arthritis for years. I began sleeping 18 hours a day. then after a year of that, I began to see people in my room that weren t there. and having auditory hallucinations. I was put into psychiatric hospitals for 4 and a half months. on and off, about a third of that time. I was placed on Seroquel that I have been on ever since. I am wondering, should I try to wean off. I still feel like the heavy doses of narcotics, including morphine 120 mgs a day, oxycodone, 120 mgs a day and lyrica, Neurontin, vistaril, lunesta, had a major cause of this, since I know I was having a lot of sleep apnea etc. I had lost 80 lbs and had stopped eating. I was near death, literally. So I feel like, I would like to see if I should try to wean off of this, but what is the best way, so as not to have rebound hallucinations, in the process. thank you.
