Could anyone feel when they were coming out of psychosis?

Is that a possibility?

There comes a point where you begin to doubt some of the things you use to believe, so I guess you could say you “feel when” you are coming out of psychosis. It’s kind of a gradual thing coming out of psychosis though. I don’t think I dropped all my beliefs immediately.

I do. I notice my memory starts getting better. The unusual thoughts persist for some time, though.

But do you start to feel more connected to reality in general?

Not really. The delusions had BECOME my reality. I never felt like I was disconnected from reality really.

I guess? It’s a slow process, so it’s hard to know for sure when something has changed for the better.

i’m not sure i could feel coming out of it… it took a long time and i think i’m still partly in it and prob will not come out. But it’s better than it used to be for sure…

Yeah definitely. It was like BAM none of this is real you’re just a little off in the head because of this disease called schizoaffective disorder. It was a relief and a disappointment at the same time. Life got a lot more boring, I became much less important in my own mind, and my manner of speaking to and relating to friends/family went back to normal for the most part.
