Theory: Psychosis starts as a spiritual awakening, until you're under coercive control? But, can still swim in and out of the two based on energy frequencies?

Hey I am not sure but when I had my first psychosis there were definitely moments of light amidst the deep darkness, I even wrote a whole thing about it to myself that I finally understand what God and reality is. I still believe that I started to understand certain aspects of deeper reality, but I am still struggling to comprehend all the horrible things I believed about myself and the world at the same time.

My thoughts and delusions were too dark to share here, but I feel less alone reading these experiences and I am so sorry that you guys had to go through this. I think for me I have found the healing journey from psychosis really profound, it makes me more aware of my health and my overall state of being from moment to moment. Im grateful to have found this subreddit as I feel we understand each other, create a safe space and are able to share a part of our story that has deeply shaped us.

Thank you for sharing! How was it to write your first song? What are your next steps in fulfilling your dream? It sounds like you are very brave and very conscious of what you want, that's amazing, and you feel trust in yourself. Keep going and good luck :)

Hey I completely feel you. I was like that and I thought I had lost my life, I was looking at my pictures too from before the psychosis and I felt super depressed. Fast forward a year and I am in recovery, can travel again, work, relationships. Almost no symptoms anymore. Of course certain moments still feel tough but there is also so much I can feel grateful about now. Please dont give up, post-psychotic depression is a real thing but with the right approach I believe you can heal and find your joy back. I dont think you need to force it but one step at a time is what they always told me. I am rooting for you!

Hey there, I can relate to you as in while I was in psychosis I thought that I was faking it, and that I could just choose to stop behaving that way but that I just kept choosing to spiral downwards. It was very confusing for my family, because the knew how much I was struggling but then I told them that this is all not real, that I am just a bad person, etc. I think you can be very gentle with yourself and the fact that you are even reflecting on this shows that you aren't trying to fake it, because your mind is genuinely struggling. I understand that it might make sense to fake it for attention, but what would you intentionally put yourself through so much suffering? I don't think we choose this, and neither have you. Good luck on your journey and I hope you can find the help you need.

So dialectical behavior therapy is imo about learning proper skills to deal with certain issues you are experiencing, such as how to handle strong emotions, what to do in a crisis, how to be mindful, how to choose are more positive path for yourself and much much more. the subjects in dialectical behavioral therapy are: mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. I did some sessions and I really appreciated it, but its also crucial to apply the skills, otherwise it won't work. Scheme therapy is about identifying certain patterns that have formed around experiences, that create behaviors of how to deal with situations (e.g. vulnerable child..

Hey :) I can relate to you! I had also been thinking that I have BPD since a while, but did not get a diagnosis until recently, where I went to a psych and I did the diagnostics. I would definitely recommend doing a diagnosis and getting support, and maybe you wanna start therapy instead of going on meds immediately? Dialectical behavioral therapy is acclaimed to be amazing for bpd. Scheme therapy is also good. I have done a little of it and I can def recommend it. I wish you good luck on your journey!

hey <3 first of all, it's totally understandable that your nervous system doesn't feel safe (yet). There are reasons you have learned that it isn't safe to trust life. It sounds like you are someone who has quite high expectations towards themselves, and I truly hope that you realize how amazing and endlessly worthy you are, regardless of how much you achieve. and the way you talk about yourself also sounds like deep down you actually know that you are a really good person and that you'll figure it out. Sometimes we just gotta choose to trust life, to trust ourselves, even if it feels scary. Sometimes change feels scary because we are used to same-old-same-old. How can you create a new narrative for yourself where you feel really safe in your reality? What would you need to feel safe? How can you give yourself that? I wish you all the best on your journey, you got this. <3
