No. I was diagnosed with Major Depressive episode with some psychotic features last year, but it has passed. There was a good deal of anxiety at the time as well, but that too has passed. I have severe chronic pain issues but wasn't able to get pain meds for the longest time for a variety of reasons. Some of my physical issues weren't diagnosed yet, legal stipulations in my state against prescribing pain meds for chronic conditions, etc. Anyway, with so much pain, I wasn't able to sleep - no sleep led to psychosis. A sleep study a year and a half in showed I was getting no stage three sleep and no REM sleep, and that changed things. I was able to get pain meds then to sleep and presto-chango, the psychosis went away.
