I’m at my bfs family members house and it’s loud, they have music playing. I took my depakote cause I started getting images (pretty much visual hallucinations). It’s been like 20mins since I took it and I even feel disconnected writing this. My mind can’t stay in reality. I brought drawing stuff with me, did that in front of them and started getting paranoid thinking they were staring at me the whole time. I just can’t be centered around people. I was borderline hearing voices, but the visual hallucinations came through and paranoia

I am. I’m on the couch on my phone, but every time I try to relax I get breakthrough visual hallucinations. I can’t leave. I don’t drive. I have to go on vacation with these people in a few weeks, how am I going to get through it??? Vacation is supposed to be fun. But where I’m going is highly populated, and yeah you’ll see me on the news having an episode… Not kidding

Wait, why would you tell me to eat sugar and caffeine when I just looked it up and it’s bad for psychosis?
