I have been thinking about this from time to time and a lot lately. My question is: Is it possible that you can bring schizophrenia or psychosis on yourself? I mean things you did and thought in the past can cause it without you knowing that it could happen.

I think many people on hindsight could look at things and say if i hadn't done X i wouldn't be suffering from Y . Sometimes we are not privy to the knowledge that X may bring about Y.

Even if you had prior knowledge of measures to take to avoid schizophrenia or psychosis it doesn't necessarily mean you will do so rather than it means you may stand a better chance of doing so.

If you do turn out to be suffering from schizophrenia i wouldn't go laying a guilt trip on yourself.

Instead strive to find what helps you best be it medication or something else.
