I have to admit, the Shamanism themes in your psychosis were fascinating to me just because it was atypical for spiritually themed delusions ...
I had a friend who had trained as a shaman and took me on a visit to the underworld (not bad) to get a spirit animal....it stuck with me. For me I don’t think I stuck to dominant themes so much as the unknown, things my brain was still not 100% on. Sandra ingerman has some great books and videos on shamanism and its entirely neutral there is no evil. Maybe check one out and see if you can redirect the psychosis?
