I saw this for a brief second on the scrolling bar on the news and I had to look it up.
This lawsuit was regarding the medication Seroquel aka Quetiapine.
Here is the link:

I would be interested in what other people think about this.

Splodge Has Gone
10 August 2010 - 02:48 AM
It happened so suddenly and I think that is why it is hard to take.
I woke up in the morning and my girlfriend said to me that Splodge was all curled up at the back of the cage, her eyes where a little squiffy.
She did not move for her crumbies that she has in the morning and even tapping on the glass did not make her move.
Now call it mothers instinct or what I immediately got her out of the cage as something felt wrong.
When she was sat having a cuddle I noticed she was wobbly and was not really sure where she was.
I tried to get her to eat or drink but she wouldn't so I wrapped her up in an old chocolate box and then made up the spare cage so she could be alone for a little while and hopefully get a little better.
Having not slept very well, I decided to get some kip, but was suddenly woken up by my girlfriend later on in the afternoon, saying that Splodge had gotten worse and was rolling.
Someone knocked on the door for something so my girlfriend dealt with them and I sat with Splodge who was now not rolling, but then suddenly she started rolling and completely freaking out. I just burst into tears.
We decided to call the vet and got an emergency appointment.
Seeing the vet they said that it could of been an ear infection but she saw no signs of that, and the chance of it coming on so quickly would be so small or it could be a brain tumour, legion or a stroke.
I myself had thought it was a stroke just by the way she was acting, I mean I went to sleep for two hours woke up to have breakfast and she had gone funny.
There and then I had to decide whether to give her some steroids and leave her till the morning or just put her to sleep.
I could not even say it to the vet without crying, but I thought that putting her to sleep was best, she did not need to be suffering anymore.
So the vet got me to sign a form, and let us say goodbye then we went out in the waiting room while she breathed in a lot of anaesthetic.
My girlfriend paid the bill, and will not let me pay her it back.
For those with small animals for example hamsters, mice etc. if they are ill take them to the vet it really does not cost much money, and it best not to let them suffer.
I brought her home and put her back in the cage so her sister can understand what is going on.
Later on today we are going to bury her.
Just now got to decide what we do with Blot.
I will miss Splodge so much, and it really bloody sucks, I feel so cursed. She was not that old really and like I said it was so sudden, she went from a happy playful mouse to a mouse that could not even determine what way was up.
My voices will make my life hell for this one.

Hard Day
03 August 2010 - 10:32 PM
Well I spent a good while in the police station today having to hand out some print outs from my forum and then make a statement to them.
I was so stressed out and anxious, especially as the only room they could take me into was an interrogation style room.
Logged on tonight and then found a couple of emails from the person I was concerned for, but somebody else had signed the emails saying the had been taken into hospital under a section, the police picked him up this morning.
Although deep down I know this was the right thing for him in the long run and for everyone else concerned...I feel terrible about it, like I sold him out or something.
My voices are not making me feel any better about it either.
*Sigh*

Feeling Violated
29 June 2010 - 02:03 AM
Some of you might of read my post about my experience with PALS, and to be honest they have made me feel very crap if not worse.
They replied to an email I sent with some information in it (my CPN's name and location) without me telling them this information.
I started to dig about how they had found that information by emailing her back...and the answer made my heart miss a beat and now I feel really violated and rubbish.
Apparently within her role in the PALS the woman told me she could access my RiO file.
My RiO file is where all of my mental health information is kept ie. letters, appointment summaries, and there are even things I have wrote and given to my CPN on there. Basically put my RiO file contains all of my private and sensitive information. Then of course my contact information is on there as well.
I suddenly became very annoyed that the information she required could of been given by myself if only she asked, but not once did she ask, nor did she even seek permission to see my RiO file.
As far as my understanding it was only trained professionals who had some involvement in my care that could access my records by signing in. Anyone who had no reason to be there had to give a reason and if anything suspicious happened it would be flagged and reported.
Now I know she said she had access but surely she needs to seek some sort of permission from me??
I feel so violated and worried about what else she read. I am even starting to doubt how secure the whole thing is and whether I should just stop mentioning sensitive stuff.
Even thinking about it makes me cry.
She said she was sorry for any anxiety she caused and when I told her to review the protocol she said I have passed that information on. How can I trust her??
She does not even comprehend what this is doing to me, she does not even seem to care.
I...I...I really feel violated over the whole thing.

Very Nervous
27 June 2010 - 12:52 AM
First a little back story...
I got put onto a waiting list for CAT therapy, that took about 18 months or so to actually get into.
I ended up with a trainee and did not finish the allotted time fro a number of reasons.
My CPN reassured me that it was the wrong therapy so he would see what he could do about long term therapy.
Got put on another waiting list.
My CPN pulled some strings, saw another trainee for assessments as actual therapist had too many cases, after four hour long assessments the trainee only offered me until September, so the same amount of time as CAT or CBT.
He would not budge, so I had to go back on the waiting list.
My CPN spoke to the trainee's supervisor (the guy I should of been seeing) to see me, but he has been fighting for his job.
He is due to see me in a few weeks just to assess me.
Right that is the long back story.
So before I knew I could see the long term therapist guy I posted a rant on the PatientOpinion website saying how unfair and crap it all was.
Somebody from PALS contacted me saying that if I wished I could meet up with the head of psychological therapies, maybe a trust member and my CPN.
I snapped the opportunity up and I think I am due for this meeting on the 8th of July.
I am now terrified of this appointment...
Really hoping I can make it and not get too ill and anxious over it.
There are other issues with personal records that are kept around my mental health that I am having problems with as well concerning PALS, but that is a separate issue.
Anyway peeps thank you for making it this far.
