Levodopa (and Carbidopa), but not the same thing.

From personal experience, it’s a bad idea. I took it as mucuna pruirens. It’s a strong herb/substance that in a way does the opposite of what the antipsychotic does. You could get really bad interactions, or go psychotic after taking it for a while.

Unless one has something like Parkinson’s, psychotic patients shouldn’t take it.
It elevates dopamine, a no go for schizophrenics

Why do you want that. If for more dopamine use bupropion (wellbutrin xr) …..
L dopa is very bad idea…
I have parkinsons and psychosis cant win
Anything to promote or increase dopamine COULD be contrary to the management of psychotic illness via antipsychotic meds - which are anti-dopamine in general.
for prolactin levels in bloods from ap’s i want to see if dopamine increase will cure it

Dostinex works that way, which is used for Parkinsons and such. But best to talk to a Doctor about this, please don’t go it alone… dopamine is a tricky neurotransmitter in our sickness.
how are you bro? whats new?

Doing Ok. But been told it’s another 5 months in hospital; purely for psychology once a week. Like 30 min crappy sessions.
Gonna refuse psychology tomorrow. I’m not obliged.
Also going on hunger strike tomorrow.
If they don’t send me home I’ll die of mal nutrition.
I’ve fasted one day before on a few occasions. I’ll do it again. This time 7 days im a row. Then indefinitely thereafter.
I can’t take hospital anymore.
Hope you’re doing well pal.

Compliance is the only way out. I don’t see why you would refuse. Even if you don’t like it you should find the actor in yourself and just pretend to be interested.
when I’m at work I put on another face, preferably the one that will see me safe and sound through the day. When I come home the mask goes off and I am a bit of another person.
So if you just can pretend and play along at the hospital to see yourself through and make the doctors and nurses at the very least view you as non hostile you are gonna make it out eventually.

That’s messed up they can keep you so long when you’re stable.

I agree with Mr. Hope. I think you need to just play to the powers that be

Hey man hope your doing ok. I dont think. A hunger strike is going to be very effective tbh. It’ll probably make them want to keep you longer… maybe just do the psychology thing… wishing you the best man

I think you guys are right. Best to just play the game.
I was gonna fast all day but I ate dinner just now.
I figured if I got sick from fasting they wouldn’t discharge me but instead send me to hospital with a feeding tube down my throat.
I have a tribunal hearing coming up.
