I've been battlelingthis disorder since my childhood. When I want to isolate myself I hide in a room or on a corner of my couch and read. I ignore everyone. I wake up and all I want to do is read. I find that I can go into another dimension and not deal with what is around me. But unfortunatly I have to work to support my familiy. I feel lucky that I have a office where I can shut the door and just zone out.
The meds I'm on are 300mg Effexor, 400mg Wellbutrin, 2mg Risperdal.
Noa -- I also have problems with noises. At times it seams as if everything has been amplified. I makes me very nervous and upset. I have a habit of trying to find where the noises are comming from and getting very frustrated.
I'm very touched from the response from everyone. I'm afraid though that this will not last. I seem to not be able to keep people around me. Maybe I'll approach this with caution. But all of you are very kind and decent.
