I’m helping my friend who lives in Florida and making many suggestions to her - I told her to come on here and create an account , go to the gym and find healthy ways to deal with her psychosis - I hope to see her here soon!

Thank you for you help mick. I have a problem with self harm and hitting myself when I am having an episode. the anger/agitation builds up that’s why I feel the need to hurt myself. I have a therapist/psych I just want to know im not alone.

I remember hitting myself and found out the thought behind it. It was “Well, you finally got your punishment.” A little parental neglect got me to act for myself. Punishment never really corrects anything. If anything it supports it.
Anyway, welcome to the forum. I hope you join in often.

I’m so sorry. and yes its better to just meditate through it, that’s for certain, at least that’s what I try to do. But sometimes it is just so hard to not act on all the anger/agitation that builds up. why do our brains and bodies do this to us???!
To me, it’s more like what do we do to our brains and bodies.
that’s interesting. I’ve abused alcohol and some drugs during my life but I do feel like my brain is betraying me when I have episodes.
Yes. I understand that. I feel possessed by a betrayer. But it is over something I did do that was wrong. It is stronger to say “I will build up my character so that I won’t be tempted to do wrong again.” I struggle with a weakness in character.
When I’m angry or upset, I write down keywords about what’s causing it on paper notes, crumble them, and light them on fire.
It feels therapeutic to watch my troubles go up in smoke
Welcome! Nice to meet ya I’m abise! Cools crowd here hope we can help! I’ve lived in Florida too.
