What's the worst thing you've done because of psychosis?

I’m glad that in my case it didn’t get attention and the women never responded

It’s hard to think or get ideas. My mind has really been dumb lately. It’s a stirggle to be in a conversation in actual life.

You’re quite lucky. Mine is a total nightmare.

I shouted at my pdoc, dentist, friend of my brother and etc. Sometimes I just feel bad because it reflects me. How do you not mind it?

Not sure what the worst thing i did is, I threw out everything I owned more than once, very costly, I lived in the dark, with all the windows blocked for a very long time, used a little flashlight to get around

You’re right it’s not so bad. It’s manageable you can get those things back

When I was being admitted to the hospital I tipped a security guards hat off his head, I was really loopy and tired. I felt bad immediately and said sorry, I was really out of it.

Then I woke up to my family telling me to eat, as I hadn’t been eating, as far as I know I hadn’t been conscious before that, but I started flirting with a nurse and asked for her number again I was out of it.

Completely out of character.

Nice to know your uncle didn’t find out. I had a similar situation where the voices told me my uncle knows things. So I ended up telling him I think the mayor is putting me under surveillance (I had paranoia and delusions of grandeur) . And he thought I was suicidal. It’s really embarrassing it pops on my head time to time. He ended up telling my family and it became news. It’s just tiring to be known for embarrassing things or to be talked about.

Thanks for the scientific explanation. All my regrets just eats me alive. I tried pointing a knife to my cousin and I even photographed it. Dumb move.

33

Honestly the worst thing I have done was drugs to try to run away from it.

34

I wasted a lot of time being homeless. I got involved with a homeless man who lied about me. They’re still bothering me.

35

I went running down the street screaming barefoot a couple of times. And other stuff that I’d rather not mention

36

I’ve done a few things I’d rather not mention.

I tried to steal a car and crash it on purpose whilst under the influence. I was on the war path. I’m very lucky that I didn’t get charged. The police were very forgiving, and I voluntarily went inpatient. Well until I got there and freaked out, placed on a section.

I totally cut my parents out of my life because I thought they hated me and were trying to ruin my life. It took a lot of work to rebuild our trust

Yeah i think everybody knows. I’m REALLY bad at keeping my mouth shut. But they can’t tell when I’m in active psychosis unless i tell them. I learned not to run screaming. I just look completely normal
