I had my first episode in 2010. thought hey I don’t think I have sz after 10 years of no psychosis. Long story short I came off meds with consent from a professional and it didn’t end well because I was taking an antidepressant on its own for several weeks before that pushed me into psychosis.
It’s knocked my confidence and I’m afraid of myself. I’m scared to get intimate with my partner.
Is what you’re saying that you don’t feel comfortable having sex with your partner?
I would be more concerned with your psychosis at this moment in time
I’m not currently experiencing psychosis. Last one was 2020.
And yet you’re still not sleeping together?
Nope. I just can’t. I’m struggling.
Is he okay with that?
My advice is to talk to him about it and maybe see a psychiatrist or a therapist about it.
I wish I had some magic beans to give you but I don’t know what to tell you. I mean honestly, if you’re struggling with wanting to be intimate, I don’t even know where to begin. It’s a complicated animal to try to figure out
