That's a good idea. I'll ask the disability services if my support worker and I can find a private room to retreat to, as that would not only help with the psychotic symptoms, but also give me a place to retreat from the excessive sensory stimuli I get at University.

	PM me if you want a PDF copy of the ICD-10 or the Mental Health Act 1983/2007. I ALSO HAVE THE DSM-V BOOK and am a pharmacology student. I have a visual impairment / neurological problems so I need people to type in clear text and no funny fonts. Also excuse any typos, my vision blocks things out. I have autism and have problems communicating, PMs included. Just becasue I type well doesn't mean I speak well. I am only part time verbal.
