Im always afraid that I will mix reality and my imagination together, and lose it.
Can psychotic individuels recover or igornore delusions and finally return back to normal.
Last night i was very rude the posts, i didnt feel in control, i just felt agitated and unselfcontrolled, disruptive like i was in elementary school, i try to suppress these epesiodes but i dont know what they are.
Please tell me everything is going to be ok.

I have a classified alert system when this occurs
Its crazy, but i like to call it EAS (Emergency Alert System)
It sort of is a state of warning when thinking is abnormal so I notify everything that systems are malfuntioning and to not integrate any infected or bizare thoughts into my logic or belief system.
There's diffrent modes
1. Panic Mode - severe reality withdrawl, connections with logic are lost, actions taken are immidiate blockage of imagination, and active flight-and fight response mechanism, notify myself everything is malfuntioning, and to hold on.
2. Red Mode- feeling of dissociatin, increase vigilince and anylaze each thought, sort of an anti-virus thing like a computer has to check infected files. Same thing to infected thoughts
3. Yellow Mode - defenses up, and stay on guard if i sense a presnese of abnormalties in thoughts.
I know this is out there, but i am keeping this routine until i can get a PET / CAT / or SPECT scan to check for damages to some areas, i belive i had a mini-stroke 7 months ago, my perception has changed of reality, i feel if i dont hold on to my thoughts I will lose them.Can you tell me if a stroke can induce Psychotic symptoms, becuase damage to some cognitive areas.

It seems as if these thoughts occurr at the same time each day, am I right? At least that is when you Post. You're very young aren't you, so you probably have not had a stroke. What makes you think a stroke. The symptoms are usually some paralysis on one side of the body, inability to speak properly, etc. Have you asked your doctor? I hope you feel better. Did you take the resperidol you talked about last night? Fondly, Phillipa

i was at sonic, and suddenly i hada sudden numbness in my arms and coulnd speak when ordering, i felt warped, as if i had been electic shocked.
Feelings of Dissociation began slowly after time after then, thoughts lose connection with eachother.
Yes i took my Respirdal 1mg, its samples, it just numbed my behavior, cant really explain.
I need to see what happened that day, have had an EEG, and MRI on the way, i have told my neurologist what happened that day, but i need to go more in depth.
THnaks for posting
Is your Valium helping?

Everything is not going to be okay and that is reality. It is a reality I have lived with since I was younger than you and I am now 36 years old. It doesn't better. They tell you it will but it doesn't.
I'm sorry, but it's the truth.

Well, thats not nothing new to hear.
Right know im on Yellow Mode, so i feel i bit more in with reality.
But it looks after 36 years you are still able to realte to reality, so thats a sign that i am not going to lose all my abilites.

Some people do get better. Remember we are all individuals, think differently, body chemistry is different, etc. A lot of us are not doing very well right now. I wonder why? Fondly, Phillipa

I am sad to see any message that doesn't leave us with any hope. "Where there's life, there's hope." Spring is coming--we already have crocus, minature daffodils, and camillas blooming in Oregon. Hopefully, we will all feel better, because spring brings new life and hope. U'D
