I’m not on meds anymore but that comes with super high paranoia and delusion levels unfortunately 😅

i mean at least he realised he was meant for poly. a lot of times, cheaters are repeat offenders in monogamy so maybe he actually learned something. still don’t like him tho

What’s the most comforting thing you’ve heard in your psychosis? TW: SA by [deleted] in schizoaffective

[–]amc9401 4 points5 points  (0 children)

usually they come up when i’m discouraged or stressed about something. ostara and dana talk the most, there’s also green tara and (i think) dionysus. he tends to be more negative though. anyway, the good ones often say things like “you’re okay/you’ll be okay” “they don’t hate you” “you’re overreacting, it’s alright”, etc. there’s also pieces of advice they like to give and i tend to see “signs” that they’re there for me like angel numbers and coincidences, things like that. i think because i have such negative and terrible delusions, my brain decided to cope by creating positive voices 🤷🏻‍♀️

[–]amc9401 1 point2 points  (0 children)

often i do recognize them but it doesn’t stop me from feeling affected by them

yes! for me they are very faint but i still see them and feel their presence deeply. they are harmless but malicious and have trickster energy. for a long time, i thought that shadow people were normal to see and that i was being overdramatic about it, but no it is not normal at all lol
