When you were in psychosis?
I’m embarrassed but I ran down the street with nothing but a shirt on thinking the shadow people would get me.
Now I feel like everyone knows.

Enough for me to get picked up by the cops in the street and then involuntarily hospitalised.

The things I did to try to avoid what I thought was going on was elaborate, over the top and cost a lot of money. But I do specialize in random stupid acts.
Yeah I’m an absolute moron with or without the illness. I spent a good 30 minutes looking for my glasses that were on my head the whole time the other day. Had nothing to do with schizophrenia.

That has me thinking of the time I was very concerned that my vision was blurry. Turns out I had my contacts in and my glasses on at the same time.

I guess talking about my delusions online and sharing and being too open about my fears and stuff. There’s lots of crazy folks and psychopaths out there. Even normies trying to make a buck or get jealous or get angry, I guess. Anyone can snap, I suppose. People have limits and buttons can be pushed rofl.
Lol. Oh man that’s hilarious. I accidentally left one of my sons in a grocery cart when he was an infant. I often had to use two carts at the same time when getting groceries. Dawned on me when I was walking out the store that I was missing something. Ran back to the cart and there were three angry women around him about to call the authorities. They started yelling at me. Oh man, I felt like such a moron.

One time I was off my med’s and behaving badly, and there were two cops waiting for me on this island in the middle of the road on a fairly busy highway. I thought those cops couldn’t do anything to me because I had done nothing wrong. As I walked by them, one of the cops said, “Hey, George.” I turned and yelled “Tom! My name is Tom!” They sprayed me with pepper spray, handcuffed me, slammed me face down on the ground, and put their knees on the back of my head and ground my face into the dirt. It hurt like hell. I had been behaving like a real jackass, though. That’s what happens when I get off my med’s.

I took a bath and dumped a bunch of salt in the water and said ‘Every step I take every move I make is love’ while dunking my head under water 
Sprayed myself with a fire extinguisher
Many other things I did I’d rather not mention…
Thanks for all the replies
Sending angry messages to people I thought were conspiring against me. Very embarrassing.

When they chained me to a table for a few hours I said some embarrassing sexual stuff to the nurse that was checking on me. They told my parents.

I’d love to tell you the terrifying trauma stories that I have been through. It is not always pleasant in life. Nor are the consequences and realities of things that happen that are out of your control. I did not choose to be abused. I did choose drugs as a course of trying to get out of it. And the consequences that followed. At the age of 13. Before I ever found out what psychosis was. By getting schizophrenia at the age of 24. Sometimes you need a second chance. But death is not one of them.

I thought I was in the Truman show, this is the best way I can explain it but knew it wasn’t real, but not completely
