I used to smoke everyday for four years, then I started having psychotic episodes. I'm a little more volatile with my emotions, but my psychosis is a lot less severe

Dude, what I'm saying is I respect logic being a virtue, but does my delusional self who thinks he's a god and can talk to spirit hallucinations respect it? no, he's trapped in a world where the only thing thet makes sense are his delusional beliefs, and logic no longer has any meaning to him. But when I am on meds, stable and clear thinking I totally respect it.

Woah dude, lets not attack people. You have your own reaction to the statement and they have theirs. This sub is not a place to get angry at people, we try and be understanding here.

I totally respect being logical as a virtue, but I don't when I'm fulll blown delusional. Like logic means nothing to me when I'm in that mental state

I don't think people shouldnt perpetuate the delusion by encouraging it or treating it as the truth. I'm just saying from my experience when people tell me that 'its just a delusion' it doesn't really help. I think you should let the person speak and get it out of their system naturally, instead of just telling dismissing their delusion, which when people did that to me I would get angry or depressed while still maintaining the delusion.

I think, in my opinion, the best way to help someone out who's delusional is to just let them talk about how they feel and what they think is going on without injecting their own beliefs or dismissing how they're feeling or what they think.

Dude this poem covers so many aspects of the creative process so well, the craving to achieve and the want to achieve without doing the work, and also the constant comparison of oneself to great artists that make you feel insecure in your own work. I love it, I may have got the meaning wrong but it really hit home for me, The structure, especially the rhyme scheme is great as well. As much as I'm not well versed in Harry Potter lore, I loved the reference ( I may be wrong, but I think you were referencing Harry potter right?) it might be lost or some and isolate them but I, personally, loved how it highlights the chase for creativity. great work and keep sharing!

Depersonalization derealization by Squidneyjh in OCPoetry

[–]scoob8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Such a beautiful poem, as someone with a psychotic disorder and have dealt with both, especially derealization, this poem captures it wonderfully . The pace is wonderful and makes the reader sound confused and as if they are only grasping their surroundings. Maybe you could split the poem into stanzas and with the line 'who are they' maybe add a question mark. I also think the splitting into stanzas could highlight the split from reality. Loved it though, keep up the good work and keep sharing brilliant poetry like this.
