I can’t do em. Triggers my psychosis. What about you?
I barely have the attention span to watch a regular movie. Not a big fan of horror movies. Having bipolar is like living in a horror movie
Yeah it is! That’s what i always tell people. Being schizoaffective is like existing in the realm of horror and being unable to escape. I totally feel you on the attention span thing too.
I can’t watch horror movies either. I’ve also got issues with the news!
I have to be careful, but I like some horror movies. I “fact check” exorcism/demon movies based on my experience, (probably not healthy). I believe some things attract/invite demons so I spend time rebuking demons when I watch those kinds of movies. But because there’s familiarity there, I still enjoy them.
I can’t watch them. I don’t need to give my mind new terrible things to hallucinate.
I am scared of watching horror movies ;(
Still haven’t watched that Lights Out movie
I constantly watch the trailers though
That’s exactly how i feel. No reason to give that part of myself something new and shiny to torture me with.
Every Halloween I watch the original Halloween movie, and then the sequel H2O…I’ve seen it so many times it’s not really scary…I cannot watch the exorcist.
It seems a lot of you guys can’t watch anything relating to demon possession, which is TOTALLY my thing too. I can handle things like Blair Witch or whatever, but put on Exorcist and i will die of paranoia and general psychosis.
I have no problem watching horror movies. The news makes me lose my ■■■■ though
The news is it’s own kind of horror.
Get ready for Girl on the train. That one looks like a 90 minute psychotic episode waiting to happen
No sh*t! Have to see it though!
That’s the truest thing I’ve heard in a while
I was watching the news when that jacob wetterling stuff was all over the news and it triggered my voices. they called me a pedophile and accused me as having part in his death. It was horrible. Horror movies are also bad. I get flashes of horrible images, intrusive images. Makes me feel like i’m going to do something harmful. Scary.
I’m sorry. Your voices sound like total assholes.
I usually can’t watch horror movies, but if my partner is there then sometimes i’m alright. last night we watched a scary movie (skeleton key) then watched a funny movie (clerks 2) I was okay to sleep. I can’t watch the news though just thinking of all those shootings and bombings and stuff is terrifying.
That’s interesting. Sometimes I can handle things with people around that I wouldn’t be able to handle when alone. I wonder if this is common.
