Hi Gal,
What I meant by symptoms of psychosis was hallucinations and delusions etc. and of course this could be a bad thing. We are all just trying to hang in there and make it through another day. A few years ago I had tremors and insomnia. An MD prescribed Tranxene and Halcyon which probably would have been OK for someone else but it made me angry and explosive. After 2 months he figured out hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) was the problem and discontinued the drugs. Years later I found out Diet Coke was causing the tremors etc. (nutra sweet). I gave up diet soft drinks for 2 weeks and my low blood sugar symptoms disappeared. I still drink regular coke today 7 years after symptoms disappeared but I do not drink anything with nutra sweet or eat diet cookies etc.
I guess if a person experienced strange and bizarre effects from any medication, they should get right back to their Dr. and let them know what is happening so changes could be made. See Ya Dan J.
