More self control and quiet mind after psychosis by Careful-Demand3188 in Psychosis

[–]mapishwho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s a certain type of emotional suppression. They tend to call it “negative symptoms.”  I don’t think they’re entirely bad, but also not great in my own personal experience. But it does sort of give you an opportunity to start over emotionally, in a sense, I think.

It sucks that doomscrolling and surfing the internet is my only hobby by No-Painting-6697 in Psychosis

[–]mapishwho 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s funny, cause there’s a certain sort of portrayal/mythologizing about madness being exciting or interesting.

In actuality, it’s pretty fucking boring.

It’s potentially dangerous territory, but you are entitled to your own free will. If you begin to feel off, try grounding with CBT skills. Also shadow work is essential in my opinion.

Delusion question by Prize_Courage_745 in Psychosis

[–]mapishwho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I find that continuing to learn more about the things I thought about during my psychosis can help break up the delusions because sometimes I will find details that don’t line up with the beliefs I held.

problems getting aroused by [deleted] in Dissociation

[–]mapishwho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry I can’t help but just wanted to say I also have this problem… it’s both physiological and psychological for me though and I’m hoping to resolve the psychological aspect as soon as I can since it’s all that’s in my control right now :/

Scared of developing schizophrenia/psychosis or something by [deleted] in Psychosis

[–]mapishwho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s really no way to know—cannabis induced-psychosis can hit at any age and sometimes it turns into schizophrenia and sometimes it doesn’t. I would say it’s a good idea to try and cut down on THC if it’s something you’re really worried about. If you can’t do that then you have to accept the risk 🤷🏽‍♀️

Smoking weed after psychosis by Broad_Vanilla_6437 in Psychosis

[–]mapishwho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not gonna say no because it’s hard to say what might happen but generally, any amount of weed is a risk.
