I really miss feeling alive

But I have come to accept that this might be the new norm.

Feeling like my brain cannot fully breathe.

I hope that with time it either gets better
Or
I hope that I get so used to how I feel now that I forget what fully alive feels like that I won’t miss it.

I know what you mean. I used to be so vibrant. Now I’m just blah. I guess you just get used to it.

I havent felt alive in a long time, even before the meds.

Because of it I do reckless sh it like do hard drugs, impulsive spending, achievement and sex addiction as well as other risky stuff but none of it helps.

Its a bad feeling, I hope you make it out of this. Unfortunately for me Ive never forgotten what feeling like a living being is and I miss it a lot

Thanks @zwolfgang.
I hope things get better for you too.

Yea I understand reckless stuff. It is very easy trap to fall into. I’m currently fighting one myself. Two actually.

Yea I do seem to be getting used to it but sometimes I remember the past and I have a small cry. Especially the prodromal psychotic phase.

Yeah I think alot of people just feel desensitized and ‘basic minded’ these days - the world does not feel ‘normal’ or ‘natural’ like it used to - I often question if I’m the only one that feels this way but after so long I doubt it – bleh
