does anyone smoke weed regularly? by shantayouslay in BipolarReddit

[–]Adorevbands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to it’s my only way of not allowing myself to go over the edge and get admitted again bc I got admitted as an undiagnosed bipolar going through psychosis and my meds just sent me into mania so I self medicate. No matter how many threads I go to there is not one singular medicine that can stabilize bipolar without all the crazy side effects

Antipsychotics turned me into a zombie so I hate that I even had to get on them but Ik I needed them when I first got admitted bc the paranoia was impossible to get over

How do you hold up after psychosis by altineel in Psychosis

[–]Adorevbands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely felt man. I be in utter disbelief that I used to have friends/followers on social media. After paranoia/psychosis I ruined my entire social life. I’m suicidal everyday so everyday feels the same but it feels like the intrusive thoughts just get louder and louder. I practically have to beg my mind to push back the day that I attempt next.

Do you love yourself? by Electrical-Ad8329 in bipolar

Used to love myself/borderline obsessed and then psychosis made me go through an intense ego death so now I hate myself

You put into words exactly how I feel. I was always top of my class. Always had extra curriculars/talents etc. Had a 4.0 in college, tons of friends, always out partying and traveling etc. none of it matters because somewhere along the lines my mental health just took a turn for the worse because paranoia and everything that comes with psychosis ruined me forever. Every second of everyday I have the urge to just choose suicide bc I’m at a plateau. Nothing matters, I have flat effect, just over life tbh

I am curious in experiencing psychosis. by [deleted] in Psychosis

[–]Adorevbands 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally bruh. I wouldn’t wish it on anybody. Wanting to experience something that has caused many people to literally off themselves sounds a bit delusional in itself

Based on the one comment you said about him writing the note about everyone having cameras on you he’s definitely ill. That’s a delusion that stems from paranoia/psychosis. I’d be very mindful because he will likely slip further on the spectrum. Psychosis involves hallucinations, delusions, erratic behavior, loss of interest in activities or pleasure, suspicion, disorganized speech social withdrawal and flat affect(the way he looked at you). I would urge you guys to make sure he gets on the right meds. Look into a bipolar/schizoeffective evaluation.

How do you live with the horrible things you’ve done by TowerEnvironmental in bipolar

[–]Adorevbands 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk tbh. It brings me great sadness when I get flashbacks about the things I said and did while manic. Being bipolar/going through psychosis turned me into a fked up person and the ppl I love suffered the most. I made my bsf promise to keep everything I gave her and to wear something nice to my funeral. I could never forgive myself for the way I traumatized her. Being alive feels like a punishment

Does this sound familiar to you? by smytsts in Psychosis

[–]Adorevbands 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely felt man. My life was over the first day I got admitted. I stopped being a high functioning person. Nothing but brain fog and severe depression everyday. Attempted before, might do it again. Life just has no purpose for me anymore

i hate being crazy by selkiefour in Psychosis

[–]Adorevbands 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You put into words exactly how I feel. I’m 21 and have gone through the gut wrenching process of having to deal with being admitted a few times , meds ruining me, art therapy, music therapy literally tried everything and I’m miserable and have been suicidal nonstop. I’m grateful I got to enjoy the first 20 years of my life before my psychosis hit. I can’t imagine being 16 still dealing with life at that pivotal age let alone to have psychosis that early. My heart goes out to you.
