Does anyone get the feeling they want to be psychotic again, to the time they heard voices and felt they were in a weird world ? I suppose I could just take LCD…Its been 3 and a half years since I was psychotic but life is so boring right now I want it back!

I think I know what you are talking about that feeling that you are onto something. But let me remind you of how tormenting it is being psychotic.

4 me its very stressful, for some its pleasant, I would never willingly be psychotic.

Don’t assume that it would be the same if you went there again. It could easily be weirder and worse.

I don’t think anyone really enjoys psychosis while they are actually in it. You may have fond memories of it but if you think about it, do you really want another 4 or 5 months or a another year of psychosis? You may have had a few good times with it, but I think the bad aspect of it outweighs the positive aspect of it. I strongly recommend staying away from LSD.With our screwed up brains, taking LSD is like throwing gasoline on a fire. And I’ve heard the horror stories of people who take acid who aren’t even schizophrenic and they jump out windows or they trip on a hit of acid and never come back down.

dont worry I’m not getting into LCD lol…I suppose there were a lot of good times, it was a massive part of my life, with big ups and downs, now its just evened out to nothing, I do nothing with my day and nothing with my night…id rather be talking to my soul mate through my head or being confident with the other people in my ward…
Been there, done that. I was non-functional for almost two and a half years when I first got sick when I was 19 years old in 1980. I spent the entire eighties in hospitals psyche wards, day programs, talking to therapists and psychiatrists and living in mental health housing. I had nothing. Now I’m 55 years old and looking back on more than thirty years of being employed, lived on my own for twenty years, I’ve owned and driven my own car since 1997. I started college in 1983. I’ve gone sporadically for years but now all I need is four more classes for my degree.

Sadly part of that was not true for me. I also regretfully have to say it was still fun. But thats just how my brain works. But not recommended
Thinking I was the wealthiest and most intelligent person in the world was great. Cutting my wrist and taking all my medication not so much. Same with the horrible paranoia that I was going to be sacrificed. At the end of the day, I can live without the Psychosis.

I am scared of another relapse. I will lose so much. Propably my job. Maybe my family. Maybe me. I want to be normal. I want to be well. I still hear voices. That is a strong reminder to myself not to sneak into twilight zone again. How ever tempting the good memories are. There was dark stuff too. My drawings from hospital remind me of the dark side of being ill.
