This time i m having psychosis. I get violent thoughts. but for hallucinations they died down a little. sometimes others are bizarre as to what i am saying. Only the urge to become violent is there. I don't know whether to go IP.

only you and your doctors can say whether its time for you to be inpatient or not.
what I can say is that when ever I have become a danger to myself or others (ie wanting to harm myself or wanting to harm others, suicidal,...) my treatment providers say yes its time for inpatient.
again only your doctors and you can say whether or not you need to be on inpatient status....my suggestion contact a treatment provider in your off the computer location. they will be able to assess the situation based on your problems and the laws of your location on such issues.
