I’m wondering also do any of you guys and gals notice since you had episodes do you feel slower in the head
I’ve noticed no difference except my psychosis ain’t as treatable I used to be able to take significantly less medication
My therapist said I have minimal brain damage for someone with schizoaffective disorder but for the most part I take most of my meds
After my first episode of psychosis…
I did feel slower, for like 8 months afterwards.
Idk if it’s because of brain damage or just from being soo wired from the psychosis, and the meds, that everything felt slowwww…
I’ve read that psychosis causes brain damage. I had some kind of brain scan shortly after I was diagnosed with schizophrenia but I don’t know if there was any brain damage. But I actually feel like I’ve gotten at least a little smarter since I got schizophrenia because for the last few years or so I’ve been Googling things every day and I also use Bing Copilot sometimes and ChatGPT to learn new things.
I don’t know if it’s proven, but I suppose if the mind is in psychosis mode over a longer period of time going untreated, that could maybe alter the brain, but I don’t see it happening if they catch it quick.
My brain is broken. I feel the cracks in my brain. I have a cracked brain. The cracks is brain damage. If the cracks heal I won’t be psychotic anymore.
It doesn’t damage the brain but it’s part of it. APs change that.
psychosis causes brain damage…a p meds stop the damage.
How could they possibly know this without a brain scan? It’s weird they worded it that way.
I notice I am slower than my peers. I’d love to have a look at my brain from 10 years ago versus the brain I have now and compare.
It isnt a proven fact but it MAY cause brain damage
its not proven fact. I read the book Brain Energy and then you find out there is still so much we dont know.
