I had a particularly horrendous psychosis last Thursday and Friday. I was home alone or I would have gone to the hospital on Friday. In hindsight, I should have called an ambulance and told my husband to meet me there from work.

Anyway, my question is, is it possible to never recover from a psychotic episode? I still feel very beaten down and out of sorts even though the paranoia has eased a lot but not completely. It never really does.

I've only been diagnosed since January though I've suffered with this for a very long time. This particular episode was very bad and I feel like I'm never going to be the same again. I need some experts to weigh in who have been dealing with this longer than I have, and be honest even if you think it's not what I want to hear. Of course I am going to talk this over with both pdoc and tdoc but today is Sunday. Thank you.
