Bcz now it triggers me, triggers my psychosis. I had religious delusions when off meds. Before sz I used to be a deacon in church and was member of the scouts of our church, participated in church related social activities like contests, competitions, festivals, etc
I was an agnostic pre sz and have returned to being an agnostic post sz. So, sz did not alter my religious beliefs at all(except temporarily while I was in psychosis) in my case.
Same for me.
I take a verrrry generic view on the idea of God now.
Did you have religious delusions?
I dont pray or go to church anymore, neither to their scouts and social activities.
I was a camp councilor at a church summer camp back in the day.
I was right into it before I went totally bonkers
I wanted to get married in church like my parents wanted but now its impossible due to sz. Also it would cost lots of money which I dont have.
Yes. I became a Muslim and thought I was a prophet or combinations of the old prophets. I thought I saw signs from God in everything. I actually went on a trek to the east coast on foot on my way to Mecca. I was picked up three states away in Ohio and involuntarily committed to a psych ward.
I haven’t quit my religion. But my beliefs have evolved since starting meds.
Yeah I don’t do anything. I might occasionally curse at the sky lol
I kind of take a vague view that the universe hopefully has my best interest.
Even that can get me into trouble with believing that I have a secret connection to new knowledge…
I was raised Christian btw. Went to Sunday school at my grandmas church and everything. But I have been an agnostic for many years.
I think our Christian beliefs previous or when they were current played a role in the types of delusions and hallucinations we had in psychosis
I went there too, my mother used to be a teacher there. But since I got sz and quit my religion my parents too became less religious, its like if I infected them lol
I asked my parents not to talk to me about it anymore. It was a difficult convo
My voices told me many blasphemous things, some I can’t say here but some can like they told me I am Jesus and that I have his magical DNA.
My parents were never really religious. Maybe a bit when they were young. They definitely aren’t now. It was mostly my grandmother and great grandmothers influences in that department.
Yeah I believe ya. I was also told a ton of crazy things by “God” lol
It took me several years to work out my beliefs and what was triggering my psychosis and stuff.
Challenging times for sure
So cheers to the 3 Propheteers
Last time I went to church I ended up hanging out with a group, we went to a restaurant/bar and a girl of the group insisted on paying my drinks. A few days later I gave money to a guy who knows her to give it to her but she refused taking the money and wanted me to hangout with them again.
