can stimulants be used in psychiatry for these purposes?…?





To follow some previous questions I have had on the subject I was wondering if, a stimulant of any kind could be used to help with conditions based on a patients experiences with particular problems they are having which cannot be classified specifically into a particular field. I have so far been diagnosed with a variety of conditions such as having schizophrenia, psychosis and now currently aspergers. Although the features of these conditions may be prominent the illness itself is not and have disregarded there diagnosis as is a completely inaccurate definition, basing it only what I have explained instead of identifying what is actually is there.

I do not believe you can possibly diagnosis with a singular and linear measurement of a mental illness and think you can treated for it, as it works against the idea of treating the problem with another problem, that is giving you a medication for a resulting problem not the things that have caused it. One then might consider therapy, and yes, although this can work in a certain degree and context it is far different from what I have in mind towards helping myself be better mentally.

The definition is generally misunderstood so I’ll explain as best I can, so please try not to confuse this with an established field of whatever within mental health, as I feel it is something entirely individualistic and would be, in the sense, for everyone, here’s how It works.

i. Thinking has become very difficult, in a large variety of different ways. I seem to be thinking of everything on the same kind of wavelength and that all information is clustered together into a mesh of information that is difficult to process both as and from of it. There seems to be no structure to my definitions which can utilize and understand how I can really work effectively, you may think this as an everyday kind of thing, but again please do not confuse it into completely different context.

ii. Certain, visual experiences seem distorted as such, as I feel I have had a lack of stimulation which has resulted in a difficulty in processing the information, as I can literally see things obscurely.

iii. Social interaction seems pointless in many ways, not just it by itself, but how it works inside this particular system, it is going to seem abnormal to people who do it the way that it is done, therefore it may easy to say I have a problem with social interaction as a singular factor, not anything else that that relates to and essentially derives from which can explain why that is. I know, as I feel I cannot really get across my point to people the point which will make them understand that these particular systems are actually illogical.

So my question (At last) is that, can someone under there own specific definitions, create there own diagnosis in conjunction with a doctor/psychiatrist that can help treat conditions they are having, irregardless of any specific field in which it cannot be put under, and ultimately calculate a medication that would work for them individualistically?, whatever that may be. In this case some kind of a stimulant.

and btw I am not looking for something to get me high, I am not trying to abuse anything here, just need to get what I need to work properly.

Be as thorough as you can with you answer, and again try not be bound by using "textbook" knowledge in your response, if of course that is the case. thanks very much.

    I cannot think of any situation where a doctor would treat the problems you describe with a stimulant. And you are even less likely to get a stimulant by make your own diagnosis.
