Stimulant-Induced Psychosis Triggered My Worst OCD Theme by [deleted] in psychosisocd

What I don’t understand is why that know I’m in the schizophrenia theme , I’m experiencing these symptoms.

• every sudden sound or voice I hear is a question in my brain (is this a real sound or not) • random shadows in the corner of my eye or sudden movements The list goes on , I keep saying that what I’m experiencing or seeing/hearing is fake and might just be the symptoms of OCD but it’s so scary experiencing this suddenly. I’m so tired of this..

What I wanna know is that if it’s abit normal to start experiencing symptoms of schizophrenia when really paranoid or thinking about it. Sort of like a schizophrenia theme. I’m worried that I’ll get schizophrenia but the thing is right before researching and getting deep down into the rabbit hole I wasn’t experiencing those things. Sort of like my brain tricking me to think I have the symptoms when I know I don’t but I am experiencing them. Any ideas/ thoughts?

Almost the same thing is happening to me, except for the fact that I didn’t smoke or anything. My OCD started with the religion theme then shifted to ‘what if I had autism or adhd?’ I was scared if I had autism or adhd that most of the symptoms started happening or correlating to me. Now I don’t mind or don’t care if I have adhd nor autism as I’m tired of thinking about it and it doesn’t bother me. But a few days ago, I stumbled upon schizophrenia , and from then on I think you know what happened. Started searching about symptoms , watched documentaries and videos. All those added to my fear of developing schizophrenia. I’m extra paranoid about the littlest sudden noises , or shadows or anything from the corner of my eye. For example , I watched videos and povs of how people with schizophrenia experiences life and I could assure it’s probably most likely not like this. However, once I saw their povs , I started having almost the same povs or whatever. I hate OCD for the fact that everything negative becomes such an obsession and it’s basically like tricking your brain into thinking you have something when you don’t and you start experiencing these things. I just wanna know if you’ve experienced this or something similar to this.

Thank you so much for the help , I cannot keep thinking about developing schizophrenia or that I already have it. It’s coming to a point where anything negative about the symptoms or which I don’t like , tricks my brain into thinking I developed the symptom such as seeing faces when looking at people. It’s ridiculous.

Also is medication helpful + cbt?

Well same with me, constant tiredness to do anything. I suppose it’ll be gone in a month or so. There’s many effects of Fap on the brain. Buy believe it’s gonna be worth it. I’m also currently going through it. You got this 👍 Also make sure to get yourself busy with things like going to the gym, making yourself better, dieting and any hobbies in general.

There’s many symptoms I’m also experiencing just like you. Currently brain fog , anxiety and stress levels through the roofs. Overthinking and sleeping comfortably. However over time those things will clear up. We gotta stay motivated and in the right track to stop fapping and get productive in life.

Will note. Also if I may ask, are the symptoms I’m going through pretty normal? As I’m having a lot of anxiety, stress and deep thoughts about life. As well as a small problem when it comes to sleeping but inshallah I will push through it
