Hey mate - sorry to hear about your condition - I do believe that you can change your thoughts and gain control over them with some effort and determination so good luck. Keeping a journal is a great way to do this because it can really help to sort your thoughts out and put them into order/perspective. Going out and socialising can be helpful too if you're not on drugs as you will learn to ping off people and get your paranoia under control instead of maybe thinking that people are talking about you without testing the actual reality of the situation. It helps to become as aware as possible of your thoughts and what you're thinking - always questioning your thoughts and labelling them - such as - yep that thought is paranoid - yep that one is definitely delusional etc. Learn to identify your thoughts and you will have better control over them instead of allowing them to control you.
Keep at it bro - cheers :)

That's great to hear mate. When I was younger I smoked a heap of weed and it gave me psychosis so I can relate. I went on anti-psychotics for about a year and everything went back to normal. Thank god for that. I understand it's the chemicals - after coming down from drugs like speed and feeling like shit there's not much you can do than ride it out. Having said that I do recommend exercise and eating right to get that good balance going. Works wonders for me - I can definitely tell the difference if I've had a lazy week versus a productive week in terms of working out and eating well. Time to get high off life!

You're not the only one!!I'm right now in a psychiatric hospital and I'm getting better. I know what hallucinations looks like. I don't have auditory but physical hallucinations.Right now I'm gaming nurses and a hot girl who has borderline personnality disorder but my libido is extremely low because of pills

I got psychosis probably from doing drugs so I recommend to everyone to not do drugs. I wanted to join the military and shoot machine guns and stuff but now that's a dream. Same with my old goal of being a firefighter. I learned to swim decently in a year so I could have a chance at being a FF. I might be able to be a volunteer firefighter if I get my condition and injuries fixed. So far I've been on a few different medications and none have worked. They did however make me feel side effects so bad I wanted to get shot in the face like 50 Cent to end the pain. I also gained 50 pounds because of Zyprexa. I might have a brain tumor or something, I'll find out after I get a CT scan which will hopefully be free since I'm poor. I feel bad a lot and get headache's and stuff.
I'm going to be approaching girls partly to see if my medication is working and if I still hear voices (auditory hallucinations) and am paranoid. Because of psychosis I can have some pretty extreme paranoia. Before I was put on meds it would be so bad I couldn't go into the mall because I got headaches.
I recently was smoking pep potpourri but I threw it away yesterday, I quit. Basically it's a legal way to get high. The high wasn't that good, I was paranoid as hell, and I would think about stupid shit. I know I shouldn't get high because I have a mental illness and it can make it worse. I have a mentally ill Mom and she does some fucked up things, plus I got my own issues, and I was looking for an escape I guess. What better escape than getting completely wasted and fucking up zombies with a rake for 30 minutes in Dead Rising 2.
In my opinion and belief, drugs are a pussy way out and I'm not going to do them. I'm not completely against them and hey get drunk or whatever but I have hate for getting high. I don't think smoking weed half a dozen times is bad, but if you do it a lot it can fuck you up. I'm living proof fuck anyone that says "weed doesn't hurt you."
If I quit going out it's because my illness is being such a pain in the ass that I literally can't go out without a lot of trouble. Other bad news I got is my new little sister might only live to 1 year old because of some kind of condition she might have. So I'm glad I still live at home so I can get better care for myself and spend time with my new sister if she really does have the disease or whatever it is.
I also quitting wacking off. I'm quitting for 3 months since I have a problem ejaculating and read that that will help.
I'm going to be doing mostly daygame. Any tips are helpful.
