Just Thinking Out Loud

Since Sz is know to cause addiction in some cases. I’m including the obsessiveness that I have had since I was a teen and maybe before. Does it also follow that the brain produces its own “drugs,” to satisfy the obsessiveness? The psychosis was horrible, but it was entertaining.

I’m not trying to prove anything and my head doesn’t seem to have room for too much science today. Are you obsessive? Were you ever obsessive? Is that the mark of Paraniod Sz?

The reason why I’m asking is, because I was really stimulated by the conversation on this dangerous doxing* forum. I can’t stay there, because it triggers my main symptoms due to the fact that I have some enemies over there.

The important thing is to answer my questions. I am curious.

Technically I don’t know if you can say that schizophrenia causes addiction. Technically it makes us more susceptible.

it seems that until I doubled my meds that I would obsess. bills…rock and roll day dreaming, etc.

Some people just have an addictive personality.

Thank you for answering my question. I am about to have my meds upped. It might help.

I have been doing better. I take better care of myself, and other things. I am just concerned that the sedating effect of my meds will put a stop to it.

I agree about the addictive personality bit. Sz can push you over the edge if you have one.

I am obsessive at times, but I don’t have any addictions.

For me the difference between a regular obsession and paranoia is the content of my obsession. Though I usually have thoughts that build outward and keep moving. The fact that the subject changes or it builds on itself is the mark of health for me.
