    I was wondering, if you had any psychosis, what it was and how you dealt with it.

    I think I was psychotic a few months ago. I can't remember another time though. The voices in my head were really loud and I knew that I was different but I didn't really care. I was SO paranoid, believed my doctors wanted to kill me and even confronted them about it. I tried to blind myself with drain-o (drain cleaner) and I was carving satanic symbols into my palms for blood magic rituals. I kept looking for video cameras and microphones everywhere and I was seeing people and objects that didn't exist.

    I don't know how to deal with it as it's only happened once, and since then I've been put on antipsychotics. It lasted a couple weeks and I managed to ride it out without causing any permanent damage. (thankfully I failed to blind myself).

    I'm not sure if I did it for attention or it was really psychosis. :/
