In Response To: Re: Alcohol-induced temporary schizophrenia? (lee)

Ive just recovered from this , it took me 3 months to get over it though and like the first poster described it never kicked in till about 2 days after a drinking session. All the symptoms the first poster described were present and ive spoke to other folk that have had the same experence. If your goin through this right now HANG IN THERE , it wil eventually go (although mine took 3 months to go)

Its thanks to ppl posting here that I never took my life because I knew there was other ppl goin through this and it would eventually go. I think its refered to as temporary induced pyschosis and its a known mediacal condition although not many doctors know much about it (I learnt more through asking friends who'd suffered this than the doctors knowledge) If any one is reading this and there heads are messed up then if ya ever need a chat etc just email me at:
hectorhorndog@hotmail.com

Cheers to everyone that posted here .
