I definitely had trauma from my last psychosis. My first psychosis was med induced so it didn't bother me as much because I figured if I stayed on a mood stabilizer I wouldn't get it again. But the last one last April happened all on its own and scared the crap out of me. Massive paranoid delusions so I spent a few days terrified that people were trying to kill me. I think the only thing that helped me was time, honestly. And talking about it. I talked about it on here a lot and with my therapy group. Just being able to say what happened to me helped. The only problem with that is you're limited with who you can talk to because only people who have been there understand. Everyone else thinks you're crazy.
