I just told a friend about a lot of things really...about the 3 people in my head (Fred, Alex and John) and the Woman who is my permanent companion... and she said "you're mad, you had better take your meds or else I'll tell your doctor". I don't think I am mad.

Fred, Alex, John and the Woman are very nasty to me when I try to suppress them with the olanzapine. I've stopped taking my meds (but only my friend knows in real life) and now Fre, Alex, John and the Woman have become very helpful and kind. They help me solve maths problems. When I am on the meds, I can't do the maths, the numbers don't come to my head as easily. Maths is a huge part of my life. I nearly got into the UK Maths Team and I want to get to that level one day.

Do you think I am mad? Do you think I should tell my friend to leave me alone? Do you think my doctor could actually do anything if she told him I'm not taking my meds? I don't need those meds; they suppress the numbers.

	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.
