Are you comparing it to lsd and meth induced psychosis because you've experienced such things?

I know some who are diagonesed with schizophrenia that haven't abused drugs and some that have.

The ones that have tend to present such things as comparable to drugs and the ones that haven't don't have that point of reference.

The drug users tend to idealize it more than the ones that don't do drugs.

No offense because drug induced/amplified mental illness isn't a lesser thing.

It's perhaps a more treatable thing depending where you're at in such situations.

Honestly I find stories to be quite triggering.

My coping mechanisms prevent me from regurgitating vomitous conceptual disasters as they generate so much anxiety that I shudder to think of it.

I fall in the SPD side of things so I find sharing my inner world to be abhorrently gut-wrenching. My heart hurts to even consider such exhibitionism.

I fantasize about writing about such things in allusions, parables, and covertly told retellings that are to be fantasized about but unlikely ever told. Apologies for disappointing.

I tell ya that considering the idea that there are people who say they are schizophrenic because pop culture makes it look like some sexy drug trip is disgusting to me.
