I felt after my psychotic episode that it was more of an awakening and an addition of insight. A slap in the face if you will. Like my inner being trying to tell me something. Symbolism. I get the 6th sense as well, hyper awareness.....after I left the hospital I wondered why mental health is moreso treated with pills and less about insight , mind training. Meditation, therapy, etc.... I feel as though reading books that gave me insight did more for me than any pill given to me...I think instead of labeling anything a mental illness it should be seen as an awakening and a resistance to that awakening being caught in a sort of limbo...anyway babble babble is what I'm doing
