When did you gain insight into this illness

When I gained insight was when I first started hallucinating and the voices started. But I knew nothing about my delusions and catatonia. Until I was put on meds and it seemed to help. And my parents told me I was suffering through psychosis

I somehow knew something is wrong with me while psychotic. Meds helped me a lot.

Same I knew something was off during my break, just didn’t know what

I always had insight but the voices are so convincing that I still think their real, i hope and pray that their not real so I guess if they aren’t real I will have more insight if that makes sense

I think it started for me when i heard voices arguing in my ears. It took me a while to tell my parents because i thought i’m insane(i had weird delusions) and i thought they will lock me in a mental asylum forever or similar so i was very afraid. But my parents noticed themselves i was acting unusual so they brought me to hospital. I had little insight, i knew something is not right.
